how to make tea

Instructions:
  • Boil freshly drawn and freshly boiled water to more than 98.5 degrees centigrade.
  • Pour the freshly boiled water onto the bag (in the cup) and brew for two minutes.
  • Squeeze the bag against the side of the cup with a spoon for two seconds.
  • Stir once, then squeeze for a further two seconds.
  • Remove bag.
  • (optional for milky tea) Add milk to brew last. For standard 270ml mug, optimum amount of milk is 16ml.


Things to remember
  • boil fresh water
  • boil to or over 98 centigrade to extract flavours
  • water should not have been previously boiled
  • add milk after the tea has brewed


Perfect cuppa = (T + V) + (H²0 @ >98.5°c) 2mins + S + oSt
