The tradition of drinking tea at 5:00 p.m. was once created by the Duchess of Bethford,
Anna Russell, in 1840. This was caused by the fact that in England, the time between the
second breakfast (13-14:00) and lunch (19-20:00) was too long and people began to feel
hungry. Anna Russell decided that they could have a light snack and tea between them.
