1
Boil the Water
In a kettle, bring 1 cup of water to a rolling boil.
2
Add Tea Leaves
Once the water is boiling, remove it from heat and add 2 teaspoons of Earl Grey tea leaves.
3
Steep the Tea
Cover the kettle and let the tea steep for 3-5 minutes, depending on your desired strength.
4
Strain the Tea
After steeping, strain the tea leaves from the liquid into a cup.

5
Sweeten the Tea
Add 1 teaspoon of sugar to the brewed tea and stir until dissolved.
6
Add Lemon Peel
Gently add a strip of lemon peel to the tea for an extra layer of flavor.
