Today, I’m following onto last week’s video by looking at how Russian tea culture changed as it became more widespread among the whole population of Russia, and then enjoyed a resurgence in the 20th century. I’m very fortunate to have a friend who grew up in Russia when it was part of the USSR in the late 20th century. Knowledge from a primary source!
And as always, I want to remind my viewers that I investigate history without glorifying it. Vintage style, not vintage values!
