>>>Tea... I've heard of that. It doesn't require a full kettle like a cup of coffee does?

>>Tea requires cooking? I always thought you put the bags in a glass jug for a while, and serve it over ice. What will the English think up next?!
>Don't get me started on the correct way to brew tea (even if you're going to subsequently cool it). It really bugs the English, at a cafe or restaurant, to get a cup of hot water with a tea bag on a string, NOT YET IMMERSED, to do it themselves. The tea has to infuse immediately with boiling water (unlike coffee).
Ouch, the english tea I got served at times when I was in Londen and Toronto, was just as dark as coffee. Of course they ask (if you're lucky) if you want to have milk in it. Arghhh, no then just give me hot water and a teabag (on a string): I'll make my own tea. English just do not have taste :)
