We can thank East India Tea Company for introducing tea to Britain
in the 17th century. Tea has become a favorite drink of many
countries and still remains a favorite of Britain. It is said in recent
reports that an incredible 165 million cups of tea are drank daily in
Britain! Without a doubt, tea drinking is routed deep in British history
and culture.

red wine, Jamaican dark rum, brandy and Benedictine herbal liqueur,
orange juice and lemon. Many people like hot tea with peppermint,
lemons, blueberry, raspberry or plain cup of tea.

3. Green tea is a popular drink used for losing weight. It has also been
reported people who drank green tea lowered their chances of heart

professional medical practitioner. Green tea is said to have
antioxidants aiding in slowing down of degenerative diseases. Green
tea extract is noted for helping to prevent cancer, helps your heart, it

4. Anna, Duchess of Bedford is credited for starting women to drink tea
in the afternoons in the 19th century. Anna introduced what has
widely become known as afternoon tea. Looking back at this era,
people generally only ate two meals a day. It was down to a regular
feeling of fatigue that one day Anna requested sandwiches, cakes and
tea in the mid-afternoon; a trend that soon caught on.
Afternoon tea traditionally begins with something savory, such as
sandwiches, followed by scones accompanied with jam and cream,
and then a selection of cakes. These delectable are spread over
luxurious three tier stands and supped down with lavish cups of
exquisite teas. This tradition has proved as resilient as the beverage
itself, with its longevity not purely down to the food.

5. UK has over 1500 different teas available to purchase, each with their
own unique style, taste and color. Some of the most popular flavors
are Earl Grey, Assam Black, Darjeeling and Chamomile. Tea is
usually taken with milk and sweetened with sugar if desired.
