A coffee drink with no additives- no sugar no cream or no milk is called "black coffee". Can it be also called "plain coffee?"
If yes, then can these callings be carried over to tea? That is to say, can we call "just the tea" without milk/ sweetner as plain tea or black tea?
But, as far as tea is concerned, what I hear is that unlike the case of coffee, black tea is a far cry from (plain) tea; it is a special brew.
Clarification will be very helpful indeed.
