Tea reminds us all of England but where was this tradition born?
Tea was introduced in England by Catherine of Braganza (Catarina de Bragança). When Catherine of Braganza married Charles II (Carlos II) in 1662, she took with her a big amount of tea, which was very valuable those days. Soon it became an habit to drink tea in the English court.
This habit was quickly spread around England and since then it is a very important part of the english culture.
