Considering how much tea some people drink, the person who's actually #1 probably knows they're in the top 10, surely.
The person's drinking more then anyone they have ever met for starters. That would raise some suspicion in that circle of people.
How do we define it? The volume of liquid, or the weight of tea used for brewing?
I've seen to many people drinking what's closer to milky brackish water than a tea
Volume x He-man colour scale.
I've never seen a purple teabag, but now I want to
That's true, and people steep it for varying lengths of time. Can such a thing be measured?
I’d argue yes. What people care about more is minimum steep time and minimum leaves by weight per mL water. You can use the brew ratio for this to actually define your tea to a standard like black tea. Though you’d have to define brew ratio which I trust the British to do.
After you define those things though, you’d probably measure the amount of liquid and kind of ignore the weight of the tea and steep time, so long as they go over the minimum per serving. Unless you want to argue that adding more leaves/steep time means that you’re consuming more tea, which seems wrong.
Yup, if anyone can come up with an adequate measure for this, it'll be the British. They'll probably use some stupid units for it though, but fortunately online conversion tools are available.
