Jeff,
I drink a lot of loose tea in the morning which I buy in bulk at the farmers market (usually white or oolong). Though I don't add anything after steeping it, I do add an ounce or two of various dried fruit (cranberries, apple, pineapple, papaya, etc) to the leaves for 1.2 litres of tea. I know some nutrients from the fruit and all of the sugar will leech into the water.
My question is since we are keeping breakfast to fat and protein, do you think this is too much sugar for after breakfast but before lunch?
