Tea in the UK
Free talk 1:How much do you know about tea?Can you share with us?
Since the 18th century the?United Kingdom?has been one of the largest per capita tea consumers in the world, with each citizen consuming on average 1.9?kg per year.[1]?The popularity of tea occasioned the furtive export of slips, a small shoot for planting or twig for grafting to tea plants, from China to?British India?and its?commercial culture there, beginning in 1840; British interests controlled tea production in the subcontinent. Tea, which was an upper-class drink in Europe, became the infusion of every class in Great Britain in the course of the 18th century and has remained so.
In Britain tea is usually?black tea?served with milk (never cream; the cream of a cream tea is?clotted cream?served on?scones, usually with strawberry jam, a tradition originating from?Devon?and?Cornwall). Strong tea served with milk and occasionally one or two?teaspoons?of sugar, usually in a?mug, is commonly referred to as?builders tea. Much of the time in the United Kingdom, tea drinking is not the delicate, refined cultural expression that some might imagine: a?cup?(or commonly a mug) of tea is something drunk often, with some people drinking six or more cups of tea a day.(李璠玙)
British style 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?kettle, with fresh water, is brought to a rolling boil.
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 cosymay be placed on the pot to keep the tea warm. If the tea is allowed to brew for too long, for example, more than 10 minutes, it will become over-steeped,or stewed, resulting in a very bitter, astringent taste.(兰梦婷)
