Grocery How to M.ike a Good Oup of Tea. A GOOD OUP op TEA is really a scientific preparation. Some prefer all black Tea, others a mixture of green. Tho moat wholesome ia that made from black alone, and if ene teaspoonful of tea be allowed for each person besides an extra one for the teapot, an infusion of excellent strength may be obtained. The Ten should be made in a bright metal teapot if possible, because bright substances retain the heat longer than rough ones ; a metal leapot extracts all the strength in the first infusion of Tea, leaving none Air tbe last brewing, an earthenware teapot being slower in its action upon the herb admits of a better Tea being poured out at last. Then the water must aot only have just boiled, but be in the very act of boiling at tbe time it is poured oTer the leaves, or no good Tea can be made. If the water has stopped or gone off the boil one half minute, the Tea will be weak and tasteless, for only water really at the boiling point will extract tbe qualities of tbe Tea, and it should stand from fifteen to twenty minutes before pouring out. The teapot should be tho* roughly dry and warm before put* ting the Tea in. In rouring the boiling water on to tbe Ten it is best only to half fill the teapot, and in ten minutes to add the remainder. By this process t\ie Meat is kept op. When the infusion has once been made' it is useless to add any more Tea to that already in the teapot. If more be required, it is better to vie a second teapot, jug, or large cup, taking care to cover closely, and place in the oven till fully infused, then it msy be added to that already in tbe teapot • It seems an easy thing to make a Gup of Good Til—and real!j is so, WHIN YOU GET IT AT McGOWAN'S. 3/- Tea at Me Go wans.
