Pie, use cold water to cool it down. I do that with Earl Grey, which should not ever have milk added to it.

Of course it works as a statement of your opinion, but in fact the aromatic teas should never, ever be served with lemon, a little milk is acceptable if that is your preference. Of the Earl Grey drinkers here, only one drinks it black, the others all have a splash of milk. But I do agree that apart from Japanese tea (which is understand is virtually unpalatable to Western tastes) there should be no ceremony whatsoever attached to the making, serving or drinking of tea. Cream tea or afternoon tea have their own guidelines, but no more so than a roast dinner, or morning coffee. I dunno, perhaps we have enough pomp and circumstance over here that applying it to the nation's most popular drink seems frivolous...

So, does loose tea hang around in bars and chat up coffee beans?

 yes, it was of course just opinion, posted in that way because I know many people put milk in Earl Grey which is SACRILEGE! Actually, I use teabags for earl grey now, because i drink it so infrequently the loose stuff gets nasty. :p
