I have a good friend who moved to back to England, and recently wrote with the perfect way to make any tea lover quite jealous. She had been to Fortnum & Mason's tea salon for afternoon tea!

Fortnum's has been selling high-quality tea for almost 300 years, and taking tea at their Piccadilly store in London is almost a must-do for anyone who enjoys a perfect cup of tea.

Because I can't bring Fortnum's complete tea experience to you through a blog post, I figured I would share this video where a Fortnum's Tea Specialist explains how to make the perfect cup of tea at home.

Make sure you pay attention as to why the milk is added afterwards! There is a historic reason.
