Uhum. Clears throat...
Let me educate you all on tea making,
the good proper Brit way; and shock horror no cookies. It
has got to be jam and cream scones, all served in China cups
and plates.
https://www.yorkshiretea.co.uk/about-tea/yorkshire-tea-how-to-make-a-proper-brew.php
1) Run the tap a little so the water is nicely aerated. Use water that has boiled just
once - any more than that and the level of oxygen in the water is reduced and your
tea can taste a bit ‘flat’.
2) Warm the teapot first by swilling boiling water around inside it, then warm the cups
with the water from the teapot.
3) For a four-cup pot, use two teabags. For loose tea, use one teaspoon per person and
one for the pot. (Our tea buyers like it really strong and use three or four.)
4) Add freshly boiled water to the pot, stir and leave to brew for 4-5 minutes depending on
how strong you like it.
5) If you take milk, we recommend a splash of whole or semi-skimmed milk, with sugar
if you take it.

When I went to England, I was told to not come home unless I do a specific list of 'touristy' things. (we did not go to London, so that knocked a number of things off the list.....) Go to a castle, have proper fish and chips, and go to a proper tea and cake shoppe
The tea and cake shoppe was and experience to experience. It was so formal and proper. I don't think I ever drank tea or ate a scone with so much respect ever! lol
(and they dumped vinegar on my fried (chips).....thought I was going to die when they did that....but ohmygosh....so yum!!)
The Brits have it goin' on.
(But thank goodness for Cafe Costa's that are EVERYWHERE so I could have my coffee. They make an amazing Americano! 8 days without coffee could not have been good!)
