Is it time for tea and biscuits yet? I thought I had Earl Grey in the cupboard but I don't. I have Constant Comment which I've liked with a bit of sugar or honey since I was just a kid. It has orange peel and spices in it.
In the U.S. you should be able to find superfine sugar at the grocery store which is the same thing as caster sugar. It has more finely ground crystals than granulated sugar so it dissolves faster than granulated sugar in creamed mixtures and whips. I read recently that when you make meringue using caster sugar it dissolves easier, making it harder to screw it up. And bartenders use it for mixed drinks too. They call it bar sugar and being finer it dissolves in cold drinks much better than ordinary granulated sugar.
