Ok DYMM question that I ponder every time I reread it. How the fuck does Lily make evil tea? What does she DO to it? It's not that difficult to make a decent cup what is her secret?????
Ah yes, the most pressing question of the series 🤣🤣🤣
Truly...it's a mystery. She's brilliant, right, like big brain, boss babe, and yet... Mostly it's there to humanize her, but realistically she's steeping it too long, too hot, and all that tannic acid is making it gross. The grittiness is an aggressive squeezing of the teabag to "not waste anything".
At this point, she's a little too proud to admit she's wrong about THIS, even though deep down she's maybe a little aware 👀 But Remus gives her such crap, she's not going to just let him win 🤣. Good thing James can make a good cuppa. 😌
