According to future King Charles of the shrinking UK ("the brother
of"), these are the rules for making tea (not that he makes it himself of course): -Green tea: brewed for 3 minutes -Black tea: brewed for 5 minutes -Temperature of green tea: 70 C (158 F) -Temperature of Earl Grey/English breakfast tea: 100 C (212 F) -Teacup handle placed to the right -Teaspoon under the handle -Extra milk served on the side If you get it wrong, you'll be fed to Boris Johnson. |

Left handed so the handle goes on the left. No milk. |

Seems generall right although I'm not at all sure about Prince Charles's trick of adding milk before taking out the teabag. In some British circles, even using a teabag is suspect. |

In some British circles, >even using a teabag is suspect. Yes, I got that too from tea drinkers. That tea bags are filled with the waste of the tea leaf industry. Use loose leaves instead. Or so they say. But maybe there's a special room in the tea factory where they fill tea bags with high quality leaves, just for Prince Charles. |
