We have a few folks here who talk of adding milk to their tea, but I just realized that I haven't seen anyone here add lemon to hot tea! I thought that was a common European style.
We also don't have anyone drinking tea the Eastern European style with a lump of rock sugar held between the teeth when drinking... My paternal grandmother used to drink her tea that way... I hadn't thought of that in many years. She passed away when I was a young child, but I remember her slipping me pieces of sugar under the table so my parents wouldn't notice.

I only put milk in Earl Grey tea, and lemon in herbal teas. I don't put milk in my Turkish coffee, though. I do have some friends who drink their Turkish coffee with the lump of sugar in their teeth while drinking, I'm not crazy about the whole lump of sugar business.
