Afternoon tea, a traditional British custom, can also be referred to as a cream tea or a high tea. A cream tea typically includes scones, clotted cream, and jam served with tea. High tea, however, is a more substantial meal consisting of savory dishes in addition to tea and scones. Other synonyms for afternoon tea include low tea, garden tea, and petit tea. Low tea refers to the fact that it is usually served in low chairs or tables, while garden tea is held in outdoor spaces. A petit tea is a small and intimate version of afternoon tea, often served in a tea room or at home.
