If you happen to stay in
England for any time, someone
at sometime will offer you “a
cuppa, a luvely cup o’ tea,” or “a
spot of tea,” to show a few dif
ferences in dialect, at four o’
clock in the afternoon, tea-time.
No matter what problem
comes up in England one can
think straighter, or counsel
better, or if one has committed
some sort of heinous crime, like
getting out of line in a queue,
one can ruminate better on the
consequences if one has a good
cup of tea.
From the Queen to the most
lowly soul a cup of tea settles
the nerves, ana it tastes good.
It is not a necessary evil, as
some skeptics say, but social
order of high psychological
content. During World War 11,
when rationing of food was law,
tea was not rationed to the
point of extinction as were
many other things. The tea
ration remained steady through
Britishers will admit, “it was
our cup of tea that kept us
So with great respect, here
is the recipe for that elixer of
four o’ clock in the British
afternoon.
The type of tea used is most
important. None of your fancy
scented teas, just plain good
quality India and Ceylon mixed
Orange and Black Pekoe tea.
You can get it at the local
supermarket.

Use a teapot to make the
tea, not the old “old teabag
thrown into a plastic cup ar
rangement.” An earthenware
teapot is better than metal
(that includes silver).
Put fresh cold water in a
kettle and bring to a boil. Pour
a little of the boiling water into
the teapot, and let it stand. This
is to warm the pot. After two
minutes, empty the water, and
put the teabags in the teapot,
one teabag per person.
If loose tea is used, the
English allow one teaspoon per
person and one for the pot. For
American tastes this might re
sult in too strong a tea. As you
know, the British usualyy are
able to stand their teaspoons up
in the brew, so I would suggest,
omit the one teaspoon of tea for
thepot.
Bring the water in the ket
tle to tne boil again, and take
the teapot to the kettle. Pour
the bubbling water into the
teapot. The tea must be infused
by the boiling water. Let the
tea stand three to four minutes
to brew, it is now ready for
serving.
Pour a little whole cold milk
into a china cup, before adding
the tea. Serve with one or two
lumps of sugar, or none, of
course. Terribly good l .
If you are going to have tea
with the queen, then I suggest
the following instructions in the
drawings by our artist, Hor
vath, be carefully practised.
