Let's talk tea

If it's an espresso, they'll first have a shot glass of water to cleanse their pallets and then drink the tepid coffee in one gulp

No water for me. And it has to be a double espresso. A single is too small.

A double espresso will get you going! A small one is little more than three or four tablespoons. But so strong.

Why do some tea drinkers dunk a biscuit in their cup? I don't do it, but crumbs of biscuit must drop into the tea and ruin the taste.

You can actually buy tea bags that taste like dunked biscuits. I tried one when they put a pack up in my work's canteen, they weren't too bad but I think I'll stick to normal. I have been known to occasionally dunk a biscuit but yes you can get a rather unpleasant mush at the bottom of your cup if you're not careful.

That's the idea. I don't like weak coffee. May as well have water But not so big an amount that you're flying round the room

You are correct, Yorkshire tea and M&S do some, may be others too.
