Since my childhood, I have heard many things about my culture.

-Even my country includes diverse cultures of all religions and communities.

-Although I love my culture, I have always wanted to learn about foreign
cultures. I like meeting people from different places, and learning about how we
are similar and how we are different. However, there is one culture I have
always had a little more fascination with than any other. It is the English culture.
And I am super into Afternoon Tea in the Uk.
The custom of drinking tea in general and afternoon tea culture in particular can
be considered as one of the most quintessential traditions and the most typical
characteristic of the country of fog ‘s people )
The origins of this afternoon tea date back to the 18th century and was initiated
by a Duchess of Bedford. At this time, kerosene lamps were very popular in the
life of the upper class, so having dinner at 8 or 9 o'clock was common. This late
dinner is one of only two meals of the day (the other is brunch). The Duchess
felt the wait time between meals was too long, so she decided to invite her
friends over for tea and snacks. This idea then spread throughout the upper class
and became an integral part of everyday life. It was not until later that afternoon
tea became more popular with other classes.
Traditional afternoon tea is usually a black tea from India, such as Assam,
served with a course of small cucumber sandwiches and scones with jam and
clotted cream.
Vietnamese also people also drink tea but it’s completely different. In Vietnam,
you’ve green tea or lotus tea. In Britain, we have the normal black tea like PG
Tips, Typhoo, and Yorkshire – many different types of black tea.
1. Breakfast Tea – This is the most popular type of tea drank by the British. A
hot cup of tea is the perfect pick-me-up of a morning and a quintessential part of
an English breakfast. This traditional blend is usually made with black teas from
Ceylon, Assam and Kenya.
2. Earl Grey Tea – This is a fragrant tea that has been infused with bergamot oil,
giving it an aroma that is highly distinguishable from other teas.
3. Darjeeling Tea – Light in colour with a kind of floral fragrance, this tea is
renowned for its refreshing properties
4. Green Tea – With its invigorating characteristics, green tea is famous for its
health benefits and its light, uplifting flavour, which is often infused with many
different fruit flavours too.
5. Oolong Tea – This tea is well known for its strong flavours which are due to
the tea making process which involves the tea leaves becoming withered in the
sun and then steeped.
What you need is a big tea pot, then you pour in just a little bit of boiling water,
then you squish it around in the pot the make it warm inside. Then, you throw
the water out. After that, you add some teaspoon tea leaves , depending on how
strong you like your tea. Then, you put the boiling water in and cover the pot’s
top. You let the tea brew. The longer you leave your tea to brew, the strong the
tea will be. And in Britain, the most common way to enjoy tea is with milk
 I also know that most of my knowledge about British partial, it is from film,
book and the little bit of news
• So, if I get the opportunity,I would visit England and learn more about it and
its people.
That is my favourite foreign culture and thanks for listening
