Ok honest question. Do Brits only let the tea soak for like 2-5 minutes? I always let it soak for longer, like 15 minutes otherwise I think it just doesn't taste as good.

Edit: I probably should have clarified that, when I say 15 minutes, I was thinking about teabags. I only use teabags for stuff like lavender tea etc. Also I would never let black tea soak for 15 minutes, I've accidentally been there. Can't recommend it.

It's a bit wet without a biscuit served. I suggest a rich tea or custard cream. If you can't get those in the US, any of your weird ass deviant cookies will do.

we get our tea from beans, we get our cookies from beans, and GODDAMIT some of us get our milk and sugar from beans too.

It's the American way.
