Beef Tea could be Bovril or Oxo, I suppose.So, the beef tea, that soldiers/people drank in ww2 was Bovril. I didn't know this.
I was reintroduced to Bovril a few years ago as its one of the few things you can have before a colonoscopy..... The joys of middle age!
The origins of the name 'Bovril' are quite interesting, if you have a literary bent.
