I drink Caff Tea.  Bloke in the caff pours steaming
water from the boiler into a 1-gallon stainless steel
pot over a few heaped teaspoons of Co-op 99 tealeaves, 
swirls it around until it's pitch black, 1/3 fills the 
cup with it, puts some milk in until it's dark brown
and tops it up with more boiling water.

Result: a large toxic mug you can stand your spoon up
in.  Sticking smallest finger out whilst drinking
not necessary.  Best served with fried egg roll and
brown sauce.
