I had never seen this, but apparently this is done in certain parts of the world to enhance the flavor and aroma of coffee (probably cheap or weak coffee).
Visited a cafe over the weekend and they had a tea bag in my coffee. I had ordered that coffee without knowing what it is as it was popular at this particular cafe in Korea. I thought it was a mistake, but the person I went with told me that this was their speciality. I was blown away with the flavor. Enough to a point that I went to the local market and bought Earl Grey tea (which I don't normally drink) and started combining them with my morning coffee.
Who knows….maybe it is that little extra kick of caffeine that got me all excited about this.

Love the mug
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing!
Do they do black coffee or still cream/milk and sugar it? I rather like earl grey already and coffee so I may have to try it
You’ve got me curious about the mix.
Isn’t this like a dirty chai? Just backwards? Lol
I do this with a chai tea bag (just spices) sometimes but I never thought to use actual black tea. Interesting!
I’m gonna have to try that!
I’ll be trying this tomorrow morning!
Mind blown! I don’t like earl grey on its own either…. Willing to try
Gonna give this a try tomorrow
Hmmmm
I’ll have to try this tomorrow. I have coffee in the morning and earl gray tea before bed; I’ll have to combine the two.
