What is the process of making tea?

1. Boil the Water:

- Use filtered or spring water for best flavor.

- Water should be heated to optimal brewing temperature based on the tea type (usually between 160-212°F/71-100°C)

2. Prepare the Tea Leaves/Bags:

- Measure the exact amount of tea leaves/bags according to the recommended ratio.

- Use a teapot, infuser, or tea bags as desired.

3. Steep the Tea:

- Pour the hot water over the tea leaves/bags.

- Steep for the recommended amount of time (typically 3-5 minutes for black tea, and longer for herbal teas).

- Consider using a timer or a tea steeper with an automatic lift-out mechanism.

4. Strain and Serve:

- Strain the tea leaves/bags from the brewed tea using a strainer or tea infuser.

- Discard the used tea leaves/bags.

- Serve the tea immediately in cups or mugs.

5. Add Milk or Sweetener (Optional):

- If preferred, add milk, sugar, honey, or other sweeteners to taste.

- Some teas, like black tea, are traditionally consumed with milk and sugar.

6. Enjoy the Tea:

- Tea is best enjoyed fresh, savor its aroma and flavor as you relax and unwind.
