ReplyDeleteNever re-boiled water, as this depletes the oxygen, and the taste of your tea will suffer.
I don't drink tea (I'd give this to my sister who loves it) I think she just has milk and no sugar and loves dunking biscuits in it :)
ReplyDeleteGreen tea with mint, i drink it all day long x
ReplyDeleteI am a huge fan of speciality leaf teas and I have an acorn shaped infuser which I use in my teapot and in a mug. The perfect cuppa is made by pouring water from the kettle once the water has stopped "bubbling" from the boil otherwise it scalds the tea leaves killing a lot of the nice flavour. How long the leaves are left is a matter of personal preference depending how strong a flavour you want
ReplyDeletePut in the teabag, then boiling water and then the milk, often with a bit of grated ginger to warm up.
ReplyDeleteI put 2 teabags in to make it really strong and add 1 sugar - perfect!
ReplyDeleteHas to be Tetley and nice and strong.
ReplyDeleteDepends on the tea! Love English Breakfast Tea with milk. Love fruit teas and green tea made with water and left to steep for five minutes. All made in a leisurely, relaxed way.
ReplyDeleteI have to have my tea strong so it must mash for at least 2 minutes and then just a dash of milk.

ReplyDeleteWeak & black, barely let the teabag hit the water just enough to colour it & drink it hot!
