Grocery How to Make a Good Cup of Tea. A GOOD CUP or TEA it really a soitntiflc preparation.. Some prefer all black Tea, others a mixture of green. The most whole* 1 some is that made from black alone, and if «n» teaspoonfal of tea be ' allowed for each .person besides i an extra one for the teapotj an in-; j , fusion of excellent strength imay .be obtained. The Tea should be made in a bright; metal teapot if possible, because bright substance* retain the heat longer than rough ones ; a metal teapot extracts all the : strength in the first infusion of Tea, leaving none for ihe last brewing, an , . earthenware teapot' being slower in its action upon the herb admits of a bettor Tea being, poured out at last. i . Then • the. water . must not only r have, just boiled, but be in the rery ' act of boiling at the time it is poured ' orsr the leaves, or, no good . Tea can ' b* made. If the water hss stopped .j or gone aff the boil one half minute, the Tea will be weak and tasteless, ; for only water really at the boiling . point will extract the qualities of the ' Tea, and it should stand from fifteen : to twenty minutes before - pouring out. The teapot should be thoroughly dry and warm before patI ting the Tea in. In roaring the . boiling water on to the Ten it is best only to half fill the teapot, and in :. ten minutes to add the remainder. By this process tlie keat is kept up. When the infusion has once been . .' made it is uoeiess to add' any store Tea' to that already in the teapot. If more be required-, it is better to ! use a second teapot, jug, or large cup, taking care to cover closely, ana place in:the oven till fully infused,. then it m*y be added to that already in the teapot. It stems an easy thing to make a , Cup of Good Tma.— and really is so, WHEN rOU GET IT AT ; ; McGQWAN'S. 3/- Tea at McGowan's. General Notices George Dalziel, B U T C H E B, Mast Stbbit, BEGS to.
