Place in a tea-pot three heaped tablespoonfuls, or one and a half ounces, of the best English-breakfast tea, purchased from a responsible dealer. Pour over five pints of boiling water. See to it that the water is boiling, else, even with the best quality of tea, you will never succeed to have it made to perfection. Let infuse for five minutes (but do not boil again), then send to the table with a pint of cold milk, or a pint of sweet cream.

The Glace (Iced Tea). - Prepare the same quantity of tea the same as above, pour into an ice-cream freezer, sweeten, and proceed the same as for iced coffee (No. 1353), (omitting the milk); pour it into a cold pitcher, and send to the table with six coffee-glasses, six slices of sound lemon, and powdered sugar separately.
