From tea drinker to…tea maker
The making of a perfect tea, is not merely a matter of properly boiling water and just throwing the tea bag inside. You will need to pay attention to the dosage and how long to allow the tea to steep as well. A perfect cup of tea needs a rounded spoon of Earl Grey, English Breakfast, Green Tea or Cinnamon Spicy, while Ginger Blend tea will need 1 ½ spoonful’s of tea. Add 250 ml of boiling water and let it the tea steep for 5 minutes, but not any longer because it will turn bitter.
Do you fancy iced tea? Put 5-7 ice cubes in a tall glass, pour hot tea over the cubes and then stir until the ice cubes melt. In the end, add a single ice cube without any further stirring and… enjoy!
