TEA.
Tea should be made with the little filagree silver balls that come especially for that purpose. Fill ball with best quality Oolong, or English Breakfast, tea that you can obtain (cheap teas are injurious and tasteless). Have a pot of boiling water, fill your cup and then immerse the tea ball in cup until the strength desired is obtained. Serve with sugar and sliced lemon, after the Russian fashion; it is more wholesome than with cream.
