Grocery , How to Make a Good Cup of Tea. AGOOD V CUP ot TEA is really a scientific preparation. ; Some prefer all black Tea, others a mixture of green. The most whole-, some is that made from black alone,' and if one teaspoonful of tea be allowed for each person besides ; an extra one for the teapot, an infusion of excellent streng'h may be obtained. The Tea should bo made in a bright metal :teapot if possible, because bright substances, retain the heat longer than -rough ones ; a metal teapot extracts all the"* strength in the-first infusion of Tea, leaving none for x the last brewing, an earthenware teapot being slower/in , its notion upon the herb admits of a better Tea being poured out at last. ; Then the water 1 must not ©lily' have just boiled,'but be in the very, act of boiling at the time it is poured over the leaves, or no good Text can > be made. If the water has slopped 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 the qualities df the Tea, and it should stand from fifteen ' to twenty minutes before pouring out. The teapot should be thoroughly dry and warm before putting the Tt-a in. In routing 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 tbis process tfio heat is kept up. 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 use a second teaj?ot f jug, or large cup, taking care^ to cover closely, - and place in the"oven till fully infused, then it may be added to that already in the teapot. __ "* Ii seems an easy thing to make a Cup of Good Tsa —and really is so, WHEN YOU GET IT AT McGOWAN'S. 3/- Tea at McGowan's.
