We may be posting Pumpkin Spice Latte
pics all over Instagram but when it comes down to it, tea is
definitely our hot beverage of choice.

From comforting a friend or giving an
opportunity for a gossip in the office, you really can’t beat a cuppa

Connaught came out on top, with 82 per cent of residents pledging allegiance to the mighty cup of tea and one-third of these revealed that they drank more than five cups per day!

Now, if you’ll excuse us, we’re off to stick the kettle on!
