Boil the Water
In a medium-sized pot, bring 4 cups of water to a rolling boil over high heat.
Add Loose Leaf Tea
Once the water is boiling, remove it from heat and add 2 tablespoons of loose leaf tea directly into the pot.
Steep the Tea
Cover the pot and let the tea steep for about 5 minutes. Adjust steeping time for stronger or milder flavor.
Strain the Tea
After steeping, use a fine mesh strainer to pour the tea into cups, separating the leaves from the liquid.
