Parappa09 11/26/19 5:43:18 AM #4:	also lol at this: Brewing the tea Even very slightly formal events can be a cause for cups and saucers to be used instead of mugs. A typical semi-formal British tea ritual might run as follows (the host performing all actions unless noted):[69] The kettle is brought to a rolling boil (with fresh water to ensure good oxygenation which is essential for proper diffusion of the tea leaves).[70] Enough boiling water is swirled around the teapot to warm it and then poured out. Add loose tea leaves (usually black tea) or tea bags, always added before the boiled water. Fresh boiling water is poured over the tea in the pot and allowed to brew for 2 to 5 minutes while a tea cosy may be placed on the pot to keep the tea warm.[71] A tea strainer is placed over the top of the cup and the tea poured in, unless tea bags are used. Tea bags may be removed, if desired, once desired strength is attained. White sugar and milk (in that order) may be added, usually by the guest. (Milk may be put in the cup before the tea: see below.) The pot will normally hold enough tea so as not to be empty after filling the cups of all the guests. If this is the case, the tea cosy is replaced after everyone has been served. Hot water may be provided in a separate pot, and is used only for topping up the pot, never the cup. --- https://imgur.com/uUaFvGj <cite>Parappa09 posted [p:930715821] in there's a ...

Parappa09 11/26/19 5:48:13 AM #5:	Tea was at first incredibly expensive, and so only the rich could drink it. As tea became a little cheaper the middle classes could afford it, and eventually even the working classes could afford tea. Social class was indicated by which tea you drank, whether you had milk or lemon, and whether one put milk into the cup before or after the tea. There are people in England who will look at how you make, pour, and drink tea and draw conclusions about your social class from the observation. The upper class, drinking delicate fine teas, tended to use no sugar because sugar spoiled the taste of the tea. Working class people drinking black strong tea used milk and used sugar to improve the taste being too coarse to use weaker or finer tea to begin with. this isn't from the wikipedia link --- https://imgur.com/uUaFvGj <cite>Parappa09 posted [p:930715880] in there's a ...
