is white tea the same as milk tea?
Answers (2)
Tea with milk is just that, tea with milk, a British habit of adding milk to black, usually indian, tea NOT any other variety especially fruit teas.
White tea is completely different, think black tea, green tea and white tea. All different varieties of "tea".
From a tea website..
"White tea comes from the buds and leaves of the Chinese Camellia sinensis plant. The leaves and buds are allowed to wither in natural sunlight before they are lightly processed to prevent oxidation or further tea processing.
The name "white tea" derives from the fine silvery-white hairs on the unopened buds of the tea plant, which gives the plant a whitish appearance. The beverage itself is not white or colourless but pale yellow."
glad the confusion is sorted out :D
tea with milk is milk tea and thats about it now if you go to the store you can get white tea from all the teas they have it can come with different other teas mixed in or by its self you could try a regular grocery store or like trader joes whole foods or 4 seasons they got a hugh variety so i think you would be happy with the assorted flavors that are available
thanks! a friend of mine told me that tea with milk was white tea but my other friend said that it was called milk tea and I was kind of confused:P
