Method

Brewing the Tea

1

Boil Water

In a kettle, bring 4 cups of water to a rolling boil.

2

Add Tea

Once the water is boiling, add 4 teaspoons of tea leaves or 4 tea bags to the kettle.

3

Steep

Remove the kettle from heat and let the tea steep for 3-5 minutes, depending on how strong you like your tea.

4

Strain or Remove Tea Bags

If using loose tea leaves, strain the tea into a teapot or cup. If using tea bags, simply remove them from the kettle.

Flavoring the Tea

5

Sweeten (Optional)

If desired, stir in 2 tsp of sugar or honey to sweeten your tea to taste.

Add Milk (Optional)

For a creamier texture, add 1 cup of milk to your tea.

7

Add Lemon (Optional)

For a refreshing twist, add a slice of lemon to your cup of tea.
