I still use a teapot so once brewed a little milk then pour and enjoy. Always add a bit more water to the pot so second cup too.

milk after you have put the water in 😃 plus i think it helps to cool the drink more

I pour the hot water in to the cup and let the tea bag soak for up to 4 minutes at most then add the milk.

hot water first, let it brew for a bit, remove teabag and then add the milk until the colour is just right the way i like it

I can't actually remember the last time I made a cup of tea! But water first then leave to brew for a minute, remove tea bag, then add milk.

Tea bag in cup, add hot water, stir, head to fridge to get milk, stir, figure what cereal I want to eat, stir and squish tea bag against cup, add a dash of milk to tea, add milk to cereal, put milk in fridge and enjoy.

Always milk after - I don't know why because it makes sense to add it first!

Teabag, water THEN the milk. Baffles me that people do milk then water but, eh, their own taste. Lets just all agree to not mention the people that put the teabag in last.
