Method

Preparing the Tea

1

Boil the Water

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

2

Steep the Tea

Once the water is boiling, remove it from heat and add 4 teaspoons of black tea leaves or 4 tea bags. Allow it to steep for 3-5 minutes depending on your preferred strength.

3

Strain or Remove Tea Bags

If you used loose tea leaves, strain the tea into a teapot or directly into cups. If you used tea bags, simply remove them from the kettle.

Adding Flavorings

4

Sweeten Your Tea

If desired, add sugar or honey to taste. Stir well until dissolved.

5

Add Lemon or Milk

For a refreshing twist, add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Alternatively, add milk if you prefer a creamier beverage.

6

Garnish

If using, add fresh mint leaves for an aromatic touch.
