Description
Do you take lemon in your tea? If well prepared, your tea needs nothing more than for you to enjoy it. Whether you add anything else is really a matter of taste and tradition. In China and Japan, people prefer their oolong and green teas plain, while the British serve their freshly brewed black teas with a pitcher of milk. In Russia, a dollop of raspberry jam makes the sweetest of teas, and a slice of lemon is often used to brighten Russian tea. This antique Moorcroft teaset used to belong to my Auntie Mamie. One of the happiest summer's of my childhood was spent alternating between Mamie and Nan's house and my Grama and Grampa Groves' in Aldergrove, BC. Texture added.
