WHAT IS THE HISTORY OF AFTERNOON TEA?

 The British tradition of High Tea began in the mid 1700s as an afternoon meal usually served between 3 and 4 o’clock. Initially, it was a meal for the working man, taken standing up or sitting on tall stools, thus ‘high’.  In the 1840s the english ‘upper class’ began Afternoon Tea as a social gathering.  Initially, historians will tell us, it started with the Duchess of Bedford who started feeling peckish before dinner so she requests some snacks with her cup of tea.  This became her routine and she was soon inviting guests to share in her tea and treats and AFTERNOON TEA was born.
