In a pint mug with milk, two sugars and two digestive biscuits.
After all, who wants to taste the tea itself anyway?

I enjoy many teas... But my favourite I found out about when our family went on vacation in South Africa.

There are more types of tea than Black and Green... you also have white and red!
I drink black teas... sometimes flavoured, but usually Earl Grey! I also drink it Whoopi Goldberg... i.e. Black none!
(The other named tea being Julie Andrews... White none)

Never heard of black tea before, but according to a quick search it is a way of referring to standard issue English tea (tea as consumed in England, not necessarily grown here). In that case I like my tea as follows:
Earl grey tea, filling roughly 2/3 of the cup with with the rest milk. This usually produced a creamy colour and retains a strong taste of milk.

Earl Grey with milk and no sugar. Cake if you have any please. I also love coffee, flat white with no sugar. Not instant coffee either, make it with beans!
It depends. I don't usually like black teas, but there's this one with ginger that I really like. I drink it with milk and sugar. Green, white and oolong teas I will either drink with or without sugar, depending on the overall flavour, but never milk. I happen to like some of the grassier tasting green teas without sugar, for example. Chai tea, with spices and stuff, tastes best with milk and sugar.
If there are sweets and/or pastries available, then that just makes it better.
EDIT: Though it really doesn't count, I sometimes drink those canned iced tea drink if I just need a quick beverage. I prefer real tea, but it sometimes takes too long to make.

Black or peppermint, well steeped, with a splash of honey or a spoon of sugar. Never understood why folks would want to dilute the tea with milk, but there you are.
And if it's iced? Only a little sugar to cut the edge off the bitterness.

I do not really get to drink tea often since I am in a household of people who don't like it. So the only time I get any is occasionally with some friends. When I do drink tea, I may add sugar, but I will probably go plain. As for the type, I am trying various kinds to see which I like more than others. (So many teas!)
