The secret of good tea-making lies
in having fresh boiled water, a sweet

drinking is an art many tea drinkers
refuse to take a cup unless they know
that the water has been brought from
certain springs which adds to the tonic
quality Of the tea.
We usually regard Russian tea as
simply cup of tea with slice of
lemon added. while as q matter of fact
their national drink is served with
teaspoonful of jam dropped right into
the steaming hot tea. In Morocco the
leaves of verbena and wild thyme are
added to give piquancy. The Persian

cream to be just right.
