Hosting afternoon tea at home can be as adventurous as it is calming. Of course, tea has naturally calming agents in it (L-theanine, being one such agent). And there are so many world-wide sources for different teas – China, India, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), Africa, even South Carolina. And does every tea take milk and sugar? (No.) Are lemon slices on the tea table just for looks or do you really add them to tea? (Yes, they really do go very well with some teas.) Does every tea go with every food? (Actually, no.) So, to make these decisions a little less daunting, I came up with a Tea Chart that summarizes at least some of the options. Hope this helps! And as always, please let me know if you have any questions (or suggestions!).
