Is there anything between "to" and "tea" such as "drink"?

Similar to the construction, "Would you like to lunch with us?" (It's sounds old-fashioned to me, but maybe it wouldn't to some native speakers.)

However, I personally would say this the following way, if I'd ever say such a thing.
Would you like to have tea with us this afternoon?

"lunch" can be used both as a noun and as a verb. But I haven't known "tea" can be used as a verb so far. Any dictionary you know which explains "tea" as a verb? Please send me its address.

The Oxford dictionary, for example, also lists it as a verb.

It's archaic. Anyway, I translated it as said.
