3. British black tea

Afternoon tea is an indispensable part of the day for Britons.

Anna Russell, duchess of Bedford, is credited with introducing afternoon tea to the country in the 19th century, as a way to fill the gap between lunch and the late formal dinners. The habit gradually became a trend among elite people, which was passed down through the generations, forming the distinguished British tea culture.

A classic British tea is made by adding boiling water to black tea leaves and adding a splash of milk, and sometimes sugar. It's usually served with a selection of savory desserts or cakes.
