The British really like their tea,


We drink it all the time.


Each person has their recipe


To make it taste divine.

Some insist on sugar,


Others go without.


Sometimes from a teapot


With a shapely spout.

The milk goes in beforehand,


Or after if you like,


Let it stew a minute...


Or longer as some like.

Some drink their tea


With scones and cream.


Others prefer some buttered toast


To pass away the time.

But whether you like sugar,


Or put the milk in first,


You can relax in the knowledge


You could have made it worse.
