Today the British drink more tea than any other nation – about 1650 cups of the tea a year. They drink in bed in the morning, round the fire in winter afternoon and out in the garden on sunny summer days.

What exactly is tea? It`s a drink made from dried leaves of a plant that only grows in hot countries. The British first heard of tea in 1598, and first tasted it about 1650.

We like to begin every morning with tea. We drink a few cups of tea during the day. But only 300 years ago most people in Europe didn`t know anything about tea.

This is a story of an English sailor who brought home some tea-leaves as a present for her mother. She told her friends about the present and asked them to dinner to try “tea”. When her friends came, the old woman brought in a dish and put it on the table. There were brown leaves on it, they were boiled. The guests began to eat those boiled leaves. Of course, nobody liked them.

At that moment the sailor came in. He looked at the table, smiled and said, “Mother, what have you done with those tea leaves?”

“I`ve boiled them as you told me to do?”

“And what have you done with the water?”

“I threw it away, of course.”

“Now you may throw away the leaves, too”, said the son.

Perhaps, this story never took place, but it shows that people in England at that time knew very little about tea.

The Chinese were the first people in the world to grow tea. More than 2000 years ago Chinese people knew about tea and liked it. Nowadays most people in the world like tea very much.
