The colder months are a time when avid coffee drinkers rejoice, but it is also a time for us tea lovers to celebrate. If you are like me, the thought of a warm mug of fruity, herbal or milk tea makes you melt. Although one can drink tea at any time in the year, the best time to indulge is when the temperatures are low. Drinking tea gives you a warm feeling in your chest and toasty hands. Those, such as I, who love tea to no bounds can be classified as “teaholics”. Yes, this is a real thing (on the Internet), but don’t worry, you don’t need to find a cure for your addiction. It is perfectly acceptable, and you have a loving community to back you up. Today, I present to you a list of ways to tell if you are a teaholic, too.
1. The only way that you get your daily recommended serving of water is by drinking copious amounts of tea.
2. You excuse yourself to go to the bathroom every 15 minutes but refuse others’ suggestions to cut back on your tea intake.
3. Although you may not “cry over spilled milk,” you will certainly cry if you spill your tea.
4. Whenever guests come over, you insist on making them a nice pot of tea.
5. You own at least one vintage tea cup in your collection of dainty tea cups.
6. You are a master at pouring liquids as you’ve had so much practice pouring tea from the kettle.
7. Finding that your tea cupboard is not stocked is the worst part of your day.
8. Your pinkie sticks out no matter what type of cup you’re holding.
9. After a stressful day, the only thing you want to do is sit down with a nice hot cup of tea.
10. The longest five minutes of your day are the ones you spend waiting for your tea to steep.
