BS-6008 , according to http://www.sciencefriday.com/pages/1999/...
Funny enough I had to look up on this a couple of months ago as my boyfriend was unhappy with my tea making! "Make it yourself!" You'd say to that but no, like a good "wife" I looked it up and to my surprise there is some set rules on how to make cup of teas!!! The main one being: Milk first!!!! So the water dilute into the milk and not the other way round! Et voila!
I always put the milk in last and much prefer it made with tea leaves in a teapot.
Didn't know there was British Standard for it, how much more anal are us Brits going to get with our cuppas.
