Builder's Brew
The no-nonsense mug of PG Tips or Yorkshire Tea that fuels tradesmen, offices and stressed parents nationwide. Proper strength, proper comfort.
Afternoon Tea Spread
A civilised affair with Earl Grey, cucumber sandwiches, scones and a tiered cake stand. Ideal for birthdays, anniversaries and pretending you're at The Ritz.
Cream Tea in the Garden
The West Country classic served with a fresh pot and the eternal debate over whether jam or cream goes first. Best enjoyed outdoors on a rare sunny afternoon.
Emergency Cuppa
Bad news? Put the kettle on. Whether it's a bereavement or a broken boiler, this brew is less about the tea and more about the gesture.

Herbal or Green Tea Break
Peppermint, chamomile or matcha for those swerving caffeine and dairy. Loved by yoga types and office wellness converts, side-eyed by tea traditionalists.
