Yes, Arabs can put milk in tea, although traditionally, it is often served strong and dark.
Tea is a popular beverage across the Arab world, and while the standard preparation typically involves a strong, dark brew often sweetened and flavored with mint or cardamom, the addition of milk is also practiced in some regions or variations.
Tea Preparation in the Arab World
According to the reference, tea in the Arab world is generally a strong dark mix. It is commonly brewed with sugar and served in long glasses. Variations on this include adding flavorings:
- Mint
- Cardamom
- A dash of milk
Furthermore, the reference highlights a specific regional example:
- In Yemen, black tea is brewed directly in water and milk.
This demonstrates that while not universal in every tea preparation across the entire Arab world, the inclusion of milk in tea is indeed a practice, ranging from a simple dash to being brewed with milk as in Yemen.
Therefore, while not all Arab tea includes milk, it is a method used in some preparations and regions.
