Tea has been drunk for thousands of years,
and as people are growing more health
conscious, tea sales are increasing. Personal
preference plays an important role in making
the perfect cup of tea. However, using fresh
water ensures maximum oxygen in the tea,
and warming the teapot first is standard
practice. Tradition dictates one teabag per
person, and one for the pot. Tea is served
with milk, lemon, honey or sugar, according
to taste.
