Tea

One of the most popular drinks in England is tea. When English people take a short rest at work, they like to drink tea. This is called a “tea break.” In other European countries, like France, people like to drink coffee more than tea.

When you visit a friend’s house in England, your friend will always offer you a cup of tea or coffee. It’s better to choose tea, because English tea is delicious!

Tea does not grow in England. It grows naturally in China and India. It was discovered in China nearly 5,000 years ago, but people only started drinking it in England about 400 years ago. It was taken to England in very fast ships called “tea clippers”. They were the fastest ships in the world. Every year a special race was held to find the fastest tea clipper.

The race took a long time because the ships had to travel such a long way. The tea from the fastest ship was sold at a very high price.

In England, “afternoon tea” was a very famous custom. In the late afternoon, English people liked to drink tea and eat small sandwiches and cakes. But the custom is not so common now. Most people are too busy these days for “afternoon tea.” Instead, people drink tea at different times of the day.
