Tea in English life Tea is one of the most important parts of English life….

Tea with milk The English drink tea with milk, pouring the milk first, and then the tea, without adding extra water. The tradition is so strong that companies producing green tea, fruit tea and herbal tea write a warning on the package such as «Best served without milk» which nevertheless does not stop the English from creating the most awful drink of fruit tea and milk.

11 golden rules for brewing tea The famous English writer George Orwell proposed his own golden rules for brewing tea: Tea should be from India or Ceylon. Tea should be brewed lightly in a porcelain or pottery teapot and mixed with boiling water in a cup. The teapot should be warmed, not by using water ,which spoils the taste, but on the shelf over the fire. Tea must be strong. Tea leaves should be placed directly in the teapot so that they can float freely and not in little bags,nets or packets. The brew should be poured into the boiling water. Having brewed the tea, it should be stirred or, even better, shaken. Tea should be drunk from high cylindrical cups. Cream should be removed from the milk before the milk is added to the tea. First pour the tea and only then pour the milk. Tea should be never be drunk with sugar, which spoils the taste.

The History of the Conquest of England Tea only appeared in England in the middle of the seventeenth century from China.

Spread of tea In the seventeenth century, the English became interested in the drink. In the eighteenth century, tea «traditions» started to appear and tea was for the most part, enjoyed by the wealthier members of society. By the nineteenth century, tea was drunk at all levels of society. In the twentieth century, tea became a usual and integral part of life .

The first records of tea The first records of tea being bought in London shops start appearing at the beginning of the 1650s. The first known advertisement announcing the sale of tea is in a copy of the English newspaper Mercurius Politicus from 1658.

Tea – as the cure (лекарство) Tea was used for medicinal purposes. Tea was also considered to cure headaches, gall bladder pains, and was used as a tonic to «chase away sleep and lighten the heart».

Tea and alcoholic drinks Tea became a social drink, to a significant extent taking this role away from alcoholic drinks.

The first tea dishes In the seventeenth century, people were still drinking tea after the Chinese fashion: served in small Eastern bowls and brewed in small important teapots. Then the enterprising English had already started to produce special tea services.

Sweet tea ,tea with milk , black tea First the English liked their tea (green tea)sweet and added either sugar or honey to it. Milk came later. Then English liked to drink black tea.

The first coffee houses Paradoxically, the first tea served in public places was sold in coffee houses. Coffee houses first appeared in the 1650; the first of traditionally thought to have opened in Oxford, than in London.

Tea and the English The English thought that tea is: A drink for the whole family; A drink for quiet people (мирные обыватели); A ceremonial drink.

The Revolutions How did tea make its way from far off China into the cups of the ordinary English? The route tea took to England was a difficult and long one.

The first tea was brought to England by Dutch merchants. From 1668 onwards, the sale of tea was taken under the wing of the English East India Company, which was already a powerful trade of organization. By the end of the century, the English already had their own trading station in Canton. (Port in China)

Tea - as the national drink In the eighteenth century, tea finally became the national drink throughout England.

Tea – as the expensive drink The high price of tea , caused by the length and difficulty of transporting it to England, the sale price grew noticeably as a result of the large tax set on it by the government (which by 1784 was 119%).

Smugglers and tea In the 18-th century the illegal trade in tea took on gigantic proportions. Smugglers working on their own, in groups , sometimes under the patronage of government figures brought up to half of the tea drunk in the country.

False tea And finally, great success was enjoyed by the producers of so – called (false-подделка ) tea in other words with something added in.

The Twinings – tea company In 1706, Thomas Twining opened a coffee house which also sold tea. It became a shop selling tea and tea shop. The Twinings tea company became an emblem of the aristocracy (In business Twinings held on to their traditions, not lowering ) prices or going into mass production, but relying on quality and the refinement of the taste. As a result, they were one on the last to produce tea in standard packages. Their diligence paid off: in 1837 the young queen Victoria named them as the official suppliers to the royal court.

Traditions of English Tea-drinking Tea was brewed and poured by the mistress of the house. Tea was brewed in the sitting room. (The water was often kept warm in special silver urns) Tea always freshly brewed, strong and sweet.

Teaspoons The teaspoon played a large part, some of them even bearing a number so that the hostess did not get mixed up when topping up cups. A teaspoon placed on the pot of the cup indicated the end of tea drinking.

Tea ritual The tea ritual required special equipment: tea rooms, tea houses, tea furniture, tea services, tea gowns)

European designs The Europeans particularly liked blue and white porcelain . European artists initially copied Chinese and Japanese motifs on their porcelain items. Much later it became fashionable to use European designs.

Tea traditions In the 19-th century, tea traditions in England became inviolable laws: Afternoon tea Five-o-clock Tea for two High tea

Tea conversations Much attention was also paid to the subjects of conversation while drinking tea. Conversation was the key component of the English «tea ceremony».

Tea tables Everything on the table had to come together perfectly: the tea service, the tablecloth, the napkins, the flowers in the vase, the crockery and even, ideally, the refreshments.

Tea was kept……… ………..in iron boxes in aristocratic houses.

Changes in production of tea
