| | Stash Tea: The History of Tea |
| | Tea cuisine quickly expanded in range to quickly include wafer thin crustless sandwiches, shrimp or fish pates, toasted breads with jams, and regional British pastries such as scones (Scottish) and crumpets (English). | | | Tea was the major beverage served in the coffee houses, but they were so named because coffee arrived in England some years before tea. | | | Tea remained popular in France for only about fifty years, being replaced by a stronger preference for wine, chocolate, and exotic coffees. |

| | Rec.food.drink.tea FAQ |
| | Tea is a drink made by infusing leaves of the tea plant (Camellia sinensis, or Thea sinensis) in hot water. | | | Oxidation of tea leaves is a purely chemical process and has nothing to do with the yeast-based fermentation that produces bread or beer. | | | The name 'tea' is also used to refer to the leaves themselves; and it is also the name of a mid- to late-afternoon meal in the British Isles and associated countries, at which tea (the drink) is served along with various foods. |

| | And that's why the American habit of bringing a teacup, a tea bag and a pot of hot water to the table is merely the perfect way of making a thin, pale, watery cup of tea that nobody in their right mind would want to drink. | | | Put a couple (or three, depending on the size of the pot) of tea bags into the pot (If I was really trying to lead you into the paths of righteousness I would tell you to use free leaves rather than bags, but let's just take this in easy stages). | | | If you pour milk into a cup of hot tea you will scald the milk. |
