Solution
The correct option is Bno article / no article
An/A' is used as an indefinite article for a thing or person when the reader doesn't know which one we are referring to out of many nouns. It states the random nature of the subject.
'The' is used as a definite article for a thing or person when the reader knows which one we are exactly referring to. It states the specific nature of the subject.
Option B is correct as no articles are required in the blanks to carry out the meaning of the sentence. Option A is incorrect as 'The tea' refers to a particular type of tea which the reader is unaware of. Option D is incorrect because 'A' is used with singular countable noun. Milk an tea are both uncountable nouns. Option C is incorrect as 'A tea' is illogical here.
