Making a shit cup of tea isn't treason... it's just a good enough reason to hate someone.

How do you mess up tea? Heat up water, steep your leaves, serve with milk and/or sugar to the person's tastes.

How do you mess up tea?

Too much milk, not brewing the tea bag for long enough, overbrewing, putting cold milk onto a teabag before any hot water goes in, not using hot enough water, using bad milk, using the wrong type of milk, putting the sugar in after the water has cooled a little too much, or using inferior quality teabags. I probably missed a ton of other ways to fuck up a cup of tea, it's definitely possible. Sometimes even I do it. I look at the finished product, pull a face, tip it down the sink, make another. It's rare but it happens.

So many ways.

Also 5/1 on Ong making semi-regular shit cups of tea because so many of those things matter about 1%

How much milk? That question has only a few possible answers, and none of them are an accurate measurement. If someone replied "25ml" to me I'd assume they were a sarcastic twat.

a tiny bit - still dark, just enough milk to take the bitterness away
not much - a bit more than above, enough to turn the colour a little lighter while keeping the tea strong
normal - not too milky, but not too dark either, in the middle
milky - normal with an extra splash
really milky - ratio of around 1:3, for morons who don't like tea but do like warm milky water
