It's a truth universally known that Britain went around the world beating up other countries and stealing their lunchmoney culture, food & wealth.

There is also the fact that fashions and food changes and evolves. We no longer drink cocoa the way the Aztecs did. So, British tea is now something distinct from elsewhere.

Interestingly, Turkey consumes the most tea per capita (followed by Ireland and the UK.

Anyway, having grown up in Scandinavia, I can attest to the superiority of Proper British Tea. (I have never tried Turkish tea, I might look it up.)
