Did you know that tea is mentioned in Chinese records as early as 10th century BC and it is the world’s most popular drink after water? We are not re-inventing the wheel here but we just want to show some modern ways of serving your daily cuppa.
The tea habit first came to England around 1660 with Catherine of Braganza the Portuguese wife of King Charles the second. Perhaps it calmed the nerves of the aristocrats after the 1666 Great Fire of London? A “nice cup of tea” was certainly still soothing nerves of everyone in the London Blitz about 275 years later.

In our modern times we are told by scientists that black tea may help reduce cardiovascular problems. For a great diet tip if you just substitute any habitual intake of other kinds of daily beverages like cold soda drinks with black tea (iced or hot) flavour it with lemon or sweetener and you are already doing your body a great favour by reducing calorie intake, helping you to lose weight more easily.
The Blomus Tea-Jay iced tea maker allows you to prepare delicious iced tea quickly and simply; the hot tea is poured over the ice cubes, the ice cubes melt and the iced tea can instantly be served while the tea leaves cleverly remain separated in the reservoir.

Today we use a lot of tea bags for speed and convenience, these were invented way back in 1907 in the USA but they only really took off in the UK in the seventies. Purists say the tea quality is very inferior as the leaves are usually fine ground and can leave “dust” in bottom of your cup. Now however you can have the best of both worlds with a modern one cup tea infuser; what a great present for someone to use in the workplace
