Craving a steaming brewed cup of tea? Here’s exactly how to make tea: using loose leaf or tea bags! Or go to the following specific types of tea:

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons loose leaf tea (2 grams) or 1 tea bag*
  • 1 cup water

Instructions

  1. Using an electric kettle, heat the water to 180 degrees Fahrenheit for green tea or oolong tea, or 210 degrees Fahrenheit for black tea or herbal tea.
  2. Pour the water into a tea cup. Add the tea to a tea infuser, then add it to the water (or add the tea bag). Brew for 2 minutes for green tea or oolong tea, 4 minutes for black tea, and 5 to 10 minutes for herbal tea.

Notes

*You can adjust and add about 1/2 teaspoon more or less tea for the next cup, depending on your taste.
