What they did in Boston was add cold salt water with no milk (sugar optional). So as Tea Parties go fishy tasting cold Tea is understandably not the answer. So when our fine American cousins try another UK Empire beverage called Coffee with warm fresh water it was understandable they were going to enjoy that more. As for the right to bare arms wore my short sleave shirt last week because it was a warm day so I see no problem.
