What a good boy! ) How can you be so stupid! How can you be so stupid! ) Don't come with us!

Fourth, afternoon tea in British culture.

In Britain, family gatherings, small gatherings of friends and a cup of afternoon tea are essential. Although it is called afternoon tea, it is usually enjoyed with cakes or biscuits and tea. British black tea is very popular, and the collocation of black tea and milk is very traditional. Although scientists point out that the collocation of black tea and milk (called white tea in Britain) is unscientific, the British feel that the tradition of hundreds of years has explained everything; In addition, all kinds of scented tea are also very popular in Britain, among which lemon ginger tea is really warm and suitable for the wet and cold weather in Britain.
