Here?s a little history lesson for you kids, it?s positively tee-ming with knowledge.
?
Way back in 2737 BC, the then Chinese emperor Shen Nung was sitting beneath a tree while he had his servant boil some drinking water. Then, luckily for us, some leaves from the tree blew into the water below and Shen Nung, a renowned herbalist, decided to try the infusion that his servant had accidentally created. The result of this gusty incident is what we now call tea today.
?
This nation, in my humble opinion, has been built on the strong grounding of tea, tea and more tea. Everyone, from builders who work hard in all weather to those tapping away relentlessly at keyboards, is buoyed by a brew.
?
However you may take it, nothing gets morale up like a refreshing cup of char.
?
However, the privileges we hold so dear in offices up and down the country, very nearly didn?t come to fruition. Between 1741 and 1820, industrialists, landowners and clerics all tried to bans tea breaks by claiming they made working people slothful. Thankfully, tea revolutionaries fought back and thanks to them we can enjoy a cup of tea at work.
?
Quite right too, you might say, as modern thinking dictates that regular tea breaks?can play?a vital part?in the day?to help?maintain a positive?attitude towards work as well as a healthy fluid intake.
?
The utter delight- the teabag in its purest form
?
For me personally, Earl Gray is always the tea I opt for. It?s refreshing and packed full of antioxidants, a double whammy. When tea is what you?re after there really is only one port of call and that is Twinings. With a planet?s worth of taste and texture blending into hundreds of varieties of tea, Twinings really is the market leader for tea.
?
They?ve got a cracking offer on at the moment too where you can get postage and packing free when you purchase an Earl Grey blend from their online store. Just hover your mouse over the special characters on the Promo codes site and then transport them into the checkout over at Twinings and you?re away.
?
So there it is my friends; history, laughs and some great tea offers in this particular blog. Well, history and great offers at least. So stick the kettle on, relax and await your discounted order of Earl Grey, courtesy of Twinings.
?
Enjoy it won?t you, my tea-loving readers.
