Method
Brewing the Tea
- 1
Boil the Water
In a medium-sized pot, 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. Add 4 tablespoons of loose leaf tea or the equivalent number of tea bags to the hot water. Cover the pot with a lid and let the tea steep for 5-7 minutes, depending on how strong you like your tea.
- 3
Strain the Tea
After steeping, strain the tea into a teapot or directly into cups using a fine mesh strainer if you've used loose leaf tea. If you used tea bags, simply remove them from the pot.
