Is drinking tea sexy now? It turns out that, yes, maybe NormalPeople
Photo: Hulu Tea, otherwise known as leaf water, is possibly the least sexy beverage, right after a tall glass of sweaty milk. Often dangerously hot and tasteless without fixings, it must be sipped . What’s more, a spill could mean grave injury to yourself or others. Tea — like Chardonnay or prune juice — simply doesn’t communicate the same kind of excitement or taste of say, a flute of Champagne, a frosty martini, or a glass bottle of expensive European water.
And yet, as I was watching the attractive, horny Irish protagonists of Hulu’s Normal People sip their tea, so moody and sexy and grave about the whole thing, I had a passing thought: Maybe, just maybe, tea is hot? Perhaps Normal People’s orbits of intellectual sexiness include polite little drinks?

That said, it seems they’re making a case for tea as a truly sexy beverage, something that — exceptions like Jet Li in Fearless aside — simply hasn’t been done much.
