Electric kettle to get the water to the proper temperature, and then I just dump it on a tea bag and add tiny bit of cream, depending on the tea. I leave the tea bag in because I like it strong and bitter

Cold brew over night, unsweetened

Whatever black tea steeped for slightly longer than whatever it says, teaspoon or two of sugar, and a splash of milk. I mostly drink black coffee though.

Loose jasmine tea in a tea ball, boil water on the stove in a kettle, pour over the tea & steep 3 minutes (more than that and it goes bitter). Remove tea ball, add a small spash of milk & enjoy.

My mum uses tea bags and adds the milk right over the bag as it steeps. For some reason that enrages me, so I turn away when she’s up to that nonsense.

Big pinch from a cheap 1 kilo bag of black tea, in a pint glass, strain into other pint glass.

Mostly drink coffee, but some days I want something more relaxing.

Electric kettle and french press.

1. Add sweetener and vanilla extract to mug.
2. Fill and start kettle.
3. Add loose leaf Earl Grey and lavender to french press.
4. Pour boiling water into french press.
5. Steep for 3 minutes.
6. Press and pour the tea into the mug.
7. Add a splash of oat milk.
8. Stir and enjoy.

It’s called a London Fog and it’s delicious.

I mostly drink Shan tea which has added toasted sticky rice flavour and a very strong black tea with milk and sugar, the way indians introduced back in colonial time.

Shan tea is simple. Just put it in a flask with hot water, wait a bit and drink slowly.

Black tea with milk has to be brewed hard though. Tannins are part of the flavour. I personally brew for about 15 to 30 mins. Actual tea stalls brew much longer, like hours long. Also tea leaves to water ratio is quite low as well. The tea needs to be fairly tart. Then we add evaporated milk and sweetener. A serving should be quite small because the tea is strong. May be around 100-150ml.

1. Heat water to 70 degrees using electric kettle.
2. Put loose leaf green tea in a strainer thingy. Leave room for it to expand 4 times as big
3. Swoosh some of the 70 degree water around a glass kettle to heat it up, pour it out.
4. Put strainer with tea in glass kettle.
5. Pour water over tea.
6. Let sit for a few minutes.
7. Drink.
8. Reuse the same leafs throughout the day using same steps.

I usually use unflavored green tea with decent quality. Very different from tea bags.

Bag of breakfast tea, boiling water, splash of milk

There’s no improvement to be made on perfection

Boiling water. Kettle at home and Kuereg with no pod at work. A half teaspoon of sugar. A bit of soy milk. And usually ice.

Edit: not as common, but 90 seconds in microwave works fine.

Just a green tea bag in a mug with hot water. I leave the tea bag in the whole time. No milk or sugar. Sometimes I’ll drink celestial herbal tea, but it’s very strong if you leave the tea bag in too long.

We have a hot waterdispenser for tea, we drink tea day and night. It saves electricity over a normal watercooker and it is convenient.

Fresh mint or fennel, ginger, camille, or tea in a baggy, earl grey I like best

Place a green tea bag in a mug of hot water. Cover with a plate and leave it for two minutes. Remove the tea bag. Done.
