Is This The Absolute Worst Thing You Can Do To A Cup Of Tea?

Sarah

We know it’s early and these horrors shouldn’t be talked about before noon, but a thread on Reddit has people in the office very divided.

The crime in question? Is putting a Lyon’s teabag and a Barry’s teabag in the same teapot an unforgivable breach of tea etiquette?

And it’s safe to say, people were horrified.

People were outraged…

“JUST MAKE 2 SEPARATE CUPS YOU MONSTER!”

“This results in the awful drink known as ‘Larry’s Tea’.”

They were appalled…

“Are you even Irish?”

And loyalties were revealed 

“Lyon’s in the bin, reuse the Barry’s teabag. Some Barry’s is better than none.”

“A pot with only one Lyon’s is half-strength tea. Add the Barry’s and suddenly it’s a pot of muck.”

What do you think – is this unforgivable?
