Grocery How to Make a Good Cup of Tea. A GOOD CITP opTEAis 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 strength may. be obtained. The Tea should be made in a bright metal teapot if possible, because bright substances retain the heat longer than rough, ones j a metal teapot extracts _U the ; - strength in the first infusion of Tea, leaving none for the last brewing, an earthenware teapot being slower in its action upon the herb admits of a better Tea being poured out atlast. Then the water must not only have just boiled, butbe in the very act of boiling at the time it is poured over the leaves, or no good Tea 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 of 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 Ti-a in. -In touring the boiling water on to the Ten it is best> only to half fill the teapot, aud in ten minutes to add the remainder. By thisprocess the feeat 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 belter to use a second teapot, 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. It seems an easy thing to make a Cup of Uood Tea—and really is so, WHEN £"OU GET IT AT McGOWAN TS,
