How to Brew Tea Leaves
- 1). Fill your tea kettle with water and bring to a boil.
- 2). Pour about 1 tsp. of the boiled water from your kettle into your tea pot. Swirl the water around the tea pot and then pour it out.
- 3). Arrange your tea leaves inside of the infuser and close the infuser. Place the infuser inside of the tea pot. You should use about 1 tsp. per serving for a weaker tea and about 2 tsp. per serving for a stronger tea.
- 4). Pour the water from the kettle into the tea pot, allowing the water to flow over the infuser. This is called steeping. Allow the tea to steep for 3 to 5 minutes.
- 5). Pour the tea from your tea pot into a tea cup and add milk and sugar, if desired.
