While many countries love their tea, UK citizens are particularly proud of being “tea people”. The average UK citizen consumes nearly 2 kilograms of (dry) tea each year.
Tea only made its way to England in large (quantity) in the first years of the 17th century. Tea from China and a few other Asian countries(sell) more widely in England at that time. Then tea was getting more and more popular among different social classes.
There are many varieties of tea. They all come from the plant Camellia sinensis (茶树), and are(simple) processed in different ways. Black tea mixtures are stillmost common type drunk in the UK. The reason why black tea is dark in colour is the leaves have been allowed to oxidize (氧化) before drying. People usually serve with milk or lemon.
You may still find tea made with loose tea leaves, served up in a pot, and (pour) into the best china cups with saucers for visitors, but behind closed doors it is likely to be served in a tall cup, and made with a tea bag.
Tea is still a large part of daily life in the UK today, but it seems to be the decrease. Tea sales (fall) by 6% in 2014 alone.
Still, what goes around comes around; it's sure(become) fashionable again.
