deird1Tea might just be the greatest thing mankind has ever invented.
I mean, really, it's hard enough making the inital cooking leap of "these leaves are kinda boring; let's soak them in water for a while to make them tasty", but then throwing out the leaves and drinking the cooking water? What on earth?
But it works. It works so well. And whoever invented this magnificent drink, you have my heartfelt thanks - because I benefit from your wisdom every single day.
(Right now, I am halfway through a cup of chai tea with milk and honey. It is GLORIOUS.)
Hmm. I clearly need an Uncle Iroh icon.

Hundreds of bruised, broken and conveniently not quite dead Roman soldiers can attest to the fact that it worked.
