There is a revival in the United States to bring back manners, decorum and proper dress. Interesting enough, it's spearheaded by the teens to twenty-somethings. Most parents and about 35 and up all but don't have a clue so they're doing it on their own. I'm grateful that I did teach a semblance of this to my son. He is ahead of most and is comfortable almost anywhere because of it.

High tea is like dinner time here. You eat at a dining (high) table and it's more like a full meal. Afternoon tea is taken at a lower table, coffee table, or tea table and is more like a snack. It's a little more formal. That's when all the cute little goodies come out.

High tea & Low tea ( afternoon tea ) ,the words high & low comes from the tables' height they use to serve teas !!! It's a bit confusing as low tea is a classy ,royal tea ! Vs the word high !!! That's more for lower class public ! But ,basically low tea = afternoon tea w/ pastries & scones & petite cakes ! VS high tea = almost full meals !!! And ,in England ( not sure if the same all over the Britain & U.K.,I'm sure ...? ) they do high tea at 7pm.8pm ??? As dinner ....that's what I've been told & learnt watching videos as well !

This video , the comments, and the knowledge is both funny and sad. I'm here because my granddaughter's school is having High tea. She really wants me to come so I'm going. After reading some of the comments some of this makes sense (ie. the order by which you poured the ingredients based on what the cup was made of) but in 2022 most of this is just stupid. Just another things to judge others based on differences. With all the stuff going on in the world if someone is that concerned about someone lifting their cup from a particular side, which fingers they hold their tea cup with, how they stir their tea, etc then they have waaaay bigger issues than Tea and Food. So people were "unfriended" because they slurped ? Such a sad existence. Meanwhile the other people can be more comfortable enjoying their food ,tea and company by simply being polite, respectful.

High tea is basically what North Americans consider your evening meal but less formal. It was eaten by working class people, which is ironic because misinformed people call fancy afternoon tea service "high" tea. "Dinner" is actually supposed to the main meal of the day and that could be anywhere between 11am to late at night. But "dinner" is now considered what you'd eat in the evening regardless of how formal or not it is. I've never seen this show before but given the pronunciation of "out" and "about" by the 2 presenters, my guess is this is a Canadian show. Rather fluffy and giggly, really.

Did you know , by any chance, that was brought into England by Princess Catarina de Braçança, daughter of His Magesty The King João IV of Portugal, when she married King Charles II of England, around 1660? The Princess introduced the habit of drinking tea at any time during the day as she was used to in Portugal while living with her parents The King and Queen Of Portugal, back in the 17 century. Much later , in the XIX century The 7ª Duchess of Bedford introduced the "five o'clock tea in London.

She got some of this right and some of it wrong: what she says about the difference between ‘high’ and ‘afternoon’ teas is correct; but the part about using knives and forks at afternoon tea is completely wrong. You always use your fingers at afternoon tea, and only use a demi-tasse spoon to stir your tea and a small knife to spread jam and cream on scones. You don’t wear your gloves during the tea.

*All that affectation and hand waving and neither host understood nor explained the difference between HIGH tea vs AFTERNOON tea as the video title promised. The idea that Afternoon tea is the 'poshier one' requiring manners and hat-wearing is also lame. Who produced and researched this nonsense content for the show?* Here are the differences: HIGH TEA was the meal taken by the SERVANTS (the people 'below-stairs') of English estates and manor houses which coincided with their early supper. They needed this to fortify themselves after serving lunch and now getting ready to serve dinner to the masters and guests upstairs, in-between all their other duties. Consequently, HIGH TEA was a substantive, savory meal consisting of whatever the cook/s had created for the SERVANTS that day. This included but was not limited to a first course of stews, pies, and casseroles with hearty breads, and possibly a dessert treat in the form of tarts etc., all of which were accompanied by basic English tea and ales. AFTERNOON TEA was a luxurious meal that evolved during the expansion of the empire and the discovery of the glorious teas of the Orient and India--the origin of tea-drinking and all its rituals. In China, the custom of drinking tea dates back to the third millennium BC but was only popularised in England during the 1660s by King Charles II and his wife. Then, in the mid 19th century the concept of ‘afternoon tea’ first appeared consisting of small feast of treats served by the servants to the upper-classes between 2:30pm and 4:30pm on delicate china with a variety of teas.

That's good to know. My granddaughter invited me to one her school is having and I'd rather stay home than do all that pretentious and stupid crap involved in Afternoon tea.

Following the host's (hostess) lead is a sign of respect and manners, even if you know he or she is wrong. I don't have a problem with that per se.

@2:33 What I like to bring is a nice chai masala and it creates that white privilege effect actually in your mouth, as if you're actually blowing white privilege. For me it really completes that reminiscence on things gained from British colonialism and the ransacking of non-British civilisations for profit.

Lovely video...however, no no ladies, don't you dare put your pinky up. William Hanson, the professional on etiquette has a youtube video on the history of the pinky finger up on a cup of tea. "Please don't do it"

The American lady doesn't know the afternoon etiquette at all. Next time, get a real British person or someone living in England long enough to show how to stir the tea at back and forth style. You have your scone with fingers, cakes with forks, knives are used to spread butter and jam on scones, never use a knife to cut the second open

Omg, this women has no clue what she talking about. 1st: ladies do not wear their gloves at the table. 2nd: you do not eat tea sandwiches with knife and fork, you eat with your fingers. Which is why they are small. Scones are torn apart by hand, a pastry knife is used to spread jams and clotted cream and a pastry fork is used to eat messy pastries and cakes. 3rd: the tea during afternoon tea is not heavy as compared to a breakfast tea. It is light as to compliment the fair, not overpower it. 4th: with today’s China, the order of the milk is irrelevant. Traditionally, milk was added first so that when the hot tea hit the porcelain tea cup, it did not crack it. China was weaker in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Lastly, loose leaf tea is the only tea that should be used for Afternoon tea. Commoners use bagged tea. If you want to play an aristocrats game, I suggest you learn the correct rules.

This is absolutely ridiculous! What is this NEW invention? HIGH tea? Why just why? You like to take other cultures and then make it appear as if is yours? A new USA thing? I grew up in South America, WE adopted the TEA at 4:00PM from the British who came back in the early 20,s or even earlier, a time when British entrepenours were attracted to mines, mainly gold, silver and other minerals. So, please, this HIGH tea thing is a nuisance from people who know nothing about it. Imagine an African talking about a Cuban “arroz con pollo”. Please, do not fool us and more respect to our cultures and to the British people.

This is American afternoon tea NOT an English afternoon tea, gloves on NO knife and fork NO cutting scones with a knife NO so wrong on so many levels. There is an opening in America for an English person to go and teach them how its done.

Sorry, even Ritz Carlton wouldn't give you gloves to eat with. What a bunch of nonsense. Too much exaggeration. Have some toddlers around and see what happens to table etiquette. Sandwich + lipton tea + pastries = $200 so called afternoon tea wiht probably versace cups and pots.

Copy cats! Tea time belongs to British cultures, is NOT American and there is NOT such a thing as High Tea! Tea time is and has ALWAYS been British! Do other thing or invent something else, but, repeat, do NOT copy other cultures! Please!
