Here is your licorice tea
Is the pasta cooked?

Thank you for the tea!
Pasta is cooked and eaten,
But I'm still hungry!

I use soap to wash myself,
Don't want to drink it.

Never heard of London fog.
Is it made with Earl Grey tea?

London Fog is just
cup of steamed milk and add
an Earl grey tea bag

I'll look in the fridge

I'm a barista.
I know how to make drinks
Don't you belive me?

[edit] Recipe
16 oz of milk. (2% or whole)
1 shot of vanilla syrup per 16 oz of milk
1 bag of Earl Grey Tea

[edit] How To Make
Step 1: Brew a small amount of Earl Grey tea. (Add about 1/2 cup of boiling water to your mug with the tea bag in it.) You are making Earl Grey tea concentrate. Let steep for 2-4 minutes to achieve optimum flavour.

Step 2: Heat up Milk. Preferably you have access to a steamer, or you might be able to ask your local barista for help.

Step 3: Add the vanilla syrup. (adjust according to taste)

"drinks" is only one

My lessons don't work
I need a big hard brick wall -
long run up - head hurts.

Rhyming is not it,
Haikus aren't supposed to rhyme
just count properly
