Don't change it, it's very good.That is the way Colonists would have phrased it, it's a great Pun and exactly how it would be done by modern day newspapers. Well done you and an A+ for your effort.
The Boston Tea Party
In 1773, Britain's East India Company was sitting on large stocks of tea that it could not sell in England. It was on the verge of bankruptcy.

Perfect! What a title! You are the best at titles! "Two for tea, but none for thee". I give you a thumbs up.

Your title sums up the key elements of the dispute quite well. Some may quibble, but titles aren't meant to do anything except invite one's interest in then reading the full article.

As a teahcer, I would definitely say that the title you have chosen is absolutely exellent. I promise that at my school it would be worthy of an At, if you were going to be graded on the title.

Maybe you can write the title as "the tea left with no teeth"
