“Tea” is usually sufficiently plural, of course, but owners wanted something more plural just to be clear. Like usage of “fishes” to indicate multiple species of fish, “teas” would have been fine.

I wonder why that ‘O’ in ‘omelettes’ is so very emphatic?
…and even where the apostrophe is correct, they still manage to foul it up. “Ming’s”, grammatically fine – but typographically it’s a straight ‘typewriter’ apostrophe in the middle of a connected script. It should be a nice scripty apostrophe, and kerned right up close so that the g and s still connect to each other. Grrr.

Perhaps they put the apostrophe in “teas” to tease…or should I say “tea’se”?
