Irish Tea
Dear Aunt Daisy, I have been very interested to hear about the different ways of making tea to make it go further. Though born in Scotland I spent about 12 years in Ireland, at Belfast, and round that way, and this is how they made the tea. They had a little tin pan about the size of a pineapple tin, ‘with a long handle, called a " Tea-drawer." The required water was put in, the pan set on the hot turf or peat, and when the water came to the boil the tea was put in and the pan pulled back, to a cooler spot. In some cases no teapot was used.-Birkdale.
