Avoid Elmlea as it is not proper cream, it is made with cream plus vegetable oils. And it is nasty in a hot drink, too.

I would use proper cream rather than Elmlea.
Elmlea is one of the pseudo foods put together to be cheaper and longer lasting than real food.
(From the Tescos website)
Ingredients of Elmlea
Buttermilk (63%), Vegetable Oils in varying proportions (35%) (Palm, Rapeseed), Buttermilk Powder, Emulsifiers (E435, E322 (from Soya)), Lactose, Stabilisers (E412, E410), Colour (E160a)

while cream is just cream.

When i was still drinking tea I tried cream in it. Slightly weird but I got used to it. Was best with a tiny amount. Much better in coffee.

Elmlea is a con - it is not cream, it is leftovers from making butter (buttermilk) with palm oil - aka ecological disaster planting.

Avoid Elmlea fake cream. Too many nasty ingredients as well as carbs. Very highly processed. Just buy proper cream. As for adding it to tea .... yuk! I have to have fully skimmed milk in tea or I can't drink it, but I put a lot of double cream in coffee.

My tea habit turned into a coffee one once I hit the low carb living but in the once a year cuppa, I put a mere dash of double cream and it tastes fine.

Elmlea, the biggest con I’ve seen. It states on the pot that it lasts longer once it’s opened and that is for months.
