English Breakfast Tea

English Breakfast tea is a popular, robust black tea blend, traditionally combining Assam, Ceylon, and Kenyan teas for a full-bodied, malty flavor, designed to be strong enough to pair with milk and sugar for a classic morning brew, offering caffeine and antioxidants. There’s no single recipe, but its bold, brisk character makes it a staple in British tea culture and beyond, available as loose leaf or bags.
