Tea

Always be sure that the kettle is boiling when you make tea, or the
flavor will not be so good, scald the pot, and allow a tea-spoonful for
each person. Let green tea draw by the fire from two to five minutes.
Black tea should draw ten minutes, and is much more suitable for
delicate persons than green. Persons with weak nerves should never drink
strong tea and coffee. I have known instances of persons being afflicted
with violent attacks of nervous head-ache, that were cured by giving up
the use of tea and coffee altogether, and their general health was also
improved by it. Before pouring out tea, it should be stirred with a
spoon that the strength of each cup may be alike.
Milk is the best drink for children, but if that cannot be had,
sweetened water, with a little milk, will do. |
