-====== You Can Make Tea Inside British Tanks ======
+====== Tea ======
-Interesting fact.
+==== You Can Make Tea Inside British Tanks ====
+All British shielded vehicles have a type of water boiling vessel inside. This really fills two needs: making tea (or espresso) and warming up the plasticized foil sacks that UK military rations come in. They are intended to be drenched in heated water.  [([[https://www.wearethemighty.com/mighty-culture/british-tanker-tea-kettle/|We Are The Mighty]])]
-All British shielded vehicles have a type of water bubbling vessel inside. This really fills two needs.
+==== Amount of caffeine in tea ====
+Caffeine constitutes about 3 percent of tea's dry weight. This translates to between 30 and 90 milligrams per 250-milliliter cup depending on the type of tea, brand, and method of brewing. The caffeine content of one gram of black tea ranges from 22 milligrams to 28 milligrams and the caffeine content of one gram of green tea ranges from 11 milligrams to 20 milligrams.  [([[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3459493|National Institute of Health]])]
-Making tea (or espresso in the event that you totally should).
+==== Types of tea ====
+Tea is divided into categories based on how it is processed. The three main categories include green tea, which is unwilted and unoxidized; white tea, which is wilted and unoxidized and black tea, which is wilted, sometimes crushed and fully oxidized.  [([[https://www.artfultea.com/tea-wisdom-1/types-of-tea-a-comprehensive-guidea|Artful Tea]])]
-Warming up the plasticised foil sacks that UK military proportions come in. They are intended to be drenched in heated water.
+==== Brits drink a lot of tea ====
+The Brits drink 165 million cups of tea a day. That's a staggering 60.2 billion a year.[([[https://www.powteainyourface.com/post/11-facts-about-tea|Tea In Your Face]])]
-Protected vehicles are planned to have individuals within. On the off chance that you head outside, the trouble makers will shoot you. So you probably won't have the option to go outside when you need a cuppa (to set up a camp oven, etc).
+==== Camellia Sinensis ====
+All teas come from the same plant. Black, green, white, and Pu-erh all come from Camellia Sinensis, a subtropical evergreen plant native to Asia but now grown around the world. [([[https://www.thepinkteabox.com/blogs/tea-times/what-is-tea|The Pink Teabox]])]
+==== Shen Nung ====
+Tea was first discovered in China by Shen Nung in 2737 BC, who used it as an antidote to poisonous herbs.

+==== Rooibos ====
+Rooibos is an herbal tea made from a plant that grows in South Africa. Its leaves look like needles and are fermented like regular tea leaves. [([[https://www.scienceworld.ca/stories/ever-wonder-about-rooibos/|Science World]])]
+==== Storage ====
+Tea absorbs moisture, so it is important to store tea bags in an airtight container. [([[https://teacultureoftheworld.com/Make-The-Most-Of-Loose-Leaf-Teas-With-Proper-Storage|Tea Culture of the World]])]
+==== Infusion not tea ====
+Mint tea is not a tea - it is an infusion. All teas classified as tea must come from the leaves of the Camellia Sinensis plant. Everything else, like herbs (like mint), fruits (like raspberry), and so on, is an infusion. [([[https://www.goodandpropertea.com/blogs/all/why-herbal-tea-isnt-really-a-tea|Good and Proper Tea]])]
+==== Tea bags ====
+Tea bags were invented in the United States in 1904. [([[https://time.com/3996712/a-brief-history-of-the-tea-bag/|Time]])]
+==== Oxidation ====
+Black tea undergoes the longest oxidation process. White tea has the shortest oxidation process. [([[https://www.artfultea.com/tea-wisdom-1/2017/7/7/tea-oxidation|Artful Tea]])]
+==== Black tea process ====
+Black teas are made from leaves that are fermented and then heated to remove moisture. The heat changes the color of the leaves to black. [([[https://talcottlab.tamu.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/108/2019/03/Review-Black-Tea.pdf|Talcott Lab]])]
+==== Adding milk ====
+The practice of mixing milk with tea has to do with social class, not taste. Low-quality china cups would break when hot tea was poured into them, so pouring milk in first meant that the cups would remain intact. [([[https://www.theguardian.com/notesandqueries/query/0,,-1400,00.html|Guardian]])]
+==== Iced tea ====
+% of the tea consumed in the United States is iced tea. [([[https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2015/06/09/412984583/as-american-as-iced-tea-a-brief-sometimes-boozy-history?t=1646730931654|NPR]])]
+==== Lipton ====
+Lipton is the world's best-selling tea brand. [([[https://www.teacurry.com/blogs/industry-and-world-news/most-selling-tea-brands-in-the-world|Tea Curry]])]
+==== Second-most consumed beverage ====
+After water, tea is the most consumed beverage on Earth. [([[https://www.teausa.com/teausa/images/Tea_Fact_Sheet_2019_-_2020._PCI_update_3.12.2020.pdf|Tea Association]])]

-Probably some UK reinforced vehicles have such a protected fluid containing vessel on the backside that can hold an entire heap of tea, or other beverage in the event that you totally should. Now and then the group join a plastic outdoors cup, hanging off it on a touch of string.
-This is with the goal that the infantry outside the vehicle can open the tap and get a snappy swallow of tea at short notification. It's on the back for when the infantry are seeking shelter behind the vehicle. They can in this manner have tea when being taken shots at, much the same as the fellows inside. Hanging tight for an airstrike to dispose of the trouble makers? Break time.
