Ok ingridients required are :

1. A kettle.
2. A english teabag preferably tetley,pg tip or yorkshire tea.
3. Some suger.
4. A tea-spoon.
5. Some pasturised milk or sterilised both just as good.
6. And finally a mug.

Ok so firstly boil the kettle and make sure its full i dunno why but they always taste better when my ketle was filled.
Next put one tea bag in your cup and 2 sugers (if you like suger that is).
Then just as the kettle boiled right after its clicked not a min later pour in the water until there is roughly a inch and a half left in the mug.
Leave it to brew for about 1-2 min.
Stir the tea bag and squeeze the teabag with the teaspoon against the side of the mug about 5 times.
Despose of the tea bag.
Pour in the milk until roughly 2cms is left in the cup.
And lastly make sure you drink it before it gets luke warm or cold.

Amazing Thank you Lord for the invention of tea bags.

Amen.

Whyever would anyone want to take good tea and put it in a bag? Frankly, manufacturers don't. They put their poor tea in a bag and sell fine tea by the pound.

i have always been fascinated with certain cultures seemingly inborn love of tea and tea time with whatever rituals they entail. it seems to be some sort of cultural glue that binds the people together. thanks for the recipe and taking the time to write it out for us. :)

One of the things I had to get used to when moving here... tea with milk.... oh well, it works :)

PS: I love how having "a cuppa" mans tea and being invited for "tea" means being served what I would call dinner :D

OK, no one believes me about tea that comes without the little bags. But no one is trying it! The difference is amazing, and the choices of tea are also amazing. Just go to any tea site, and ask them to help choose teas. There is Oolong, Darjeeling, Black tea, and many blends. You can pay big dollars, or make tea drinking much cheaper than the bagged kind. I love a Jasmine tea, with the flowers still intact.

There is money tea, with the legend that the tea grew so high in the mountains only moneys could reach it, and were trained to pick it. I have some, just for the romance of the story.

Rooibos Tea isn't tea at all, but so very good. It comes from a bush in South America, and there are people who say it makes you healthy. Matcha Tea is a green powdered tea from Japan that has special bowls and ceremony that goes with it. I haven't tried it, sounds interesting.

All it takes is hot water, and a strainer. Every tea says how long is the best for steeping, and if the second steeping is still good.

It is an entire new world to explore, and you can have a wonderful time and taste treats as you explore.

I want some of that money tea, but actually they tell me it is monkey tea, no money involved.

rooibos tea is awesome and naturally sweet. I also like licorice flavored teas as far as the sweet stuff goes.

I agree that loose teas are way better than the bagged kind, but don't have a ball strainer thingie, so I get the bagged kind, which is still quite good.

Except for Indian chai, I don't understand why people put milk in their teas. I make this in large batches with loose tea and use a collender to strain.
