morning tea
Early day refreshment
Morning tea is a light meal or break taken mid-morning, typically involving tea or coffee with a small snack.
The term is common in Australia, New Zealand, and Britain, where it names both the food itself and the occasion: We'll discuss the proposal over morning tea.
In workplaces and schools, morning tea is often a scheduled break around 10 or 11 a.m.
