It’s a celebration of tea
Did you know that tea is the second most consumed beverage after water? Now that’s some dedication and passion because while we do need water for the sake of survival, there’s no scientific proof that says we need tea to survive.

It’s a celebration of social customs
While afternoon tea is only as old as the 1840s, the idea of having tea as a snack during midday goes further back. Many people in South Asia, for example, have frothy tea as they sit down for a break from the day’s work. This brief tea break session is accompanied by light snacks such as samosas, rotis, and cake rusks.
