How much tea is needed to serve 125 people?

To determine the amount of tea needed to serve 125 people, consider the following information:

1. Tea Serving Size: A standard teacup serves approximately 7 to 8 fluid ounces of tea.

2. Tea Concentration: Depending on your preference, you can adjust the strength of the tea.

- Mild (Weak): 1 tea bag or teaspoon of loose-leaf tea per cup

- Medium: 1.5 tea bags or teaspoons of loose-leaf tea per cup

- Strong: 2 tea bags or teaspoons of loose-leaf tea per cup

Calculation:

Assuming you prefer a medium strength of tea and each person will want one cup:

- Mild (Weak Tea): You'll need approximately 125 tea bags or 125 teaspoons of loose-leaf tea.

- Medium Tea: You'll need approximately 188 tea bags or 188 teaspoons of loose-leaf tea.

- Strong Tea: You'll need approximately 250 tea bags or 250 teaspoons of loose-leaf tea.

Now add the amount of tea according to your preferred strength into a large tea infuser/pot or multiple infusers/pots and follow the brewing instructions on the tea packaging.

This should give you enough tea to serve 125 people, accounting for a moderate amount consumed by each person. Adjust the quantities as needed based on your tea strength preference and any potential refills your guests may request.
