Ingredient:
1 tsp loose, whole-leaf tea (or up to 2 tsp. if you prefer)
filtered or bottled water
sugar, lemon, cream, or other accompaniments as desired
Method:
Heat water to boiling. Remove from heat source. For green and white tea, allow water to cool 3 to 5 minutes. For other tea types, use boiled water right away.
Add 1 to 2 tsp. loose-leaf tea to an infuser. Place infuser in 8 oz. of the boiled water and allow to steep. Steep black or oolong teas 2 to 5 minutes, white tea 3 to 5 minutes, herbal teas 7 to 10 minutes. Let taste be your guide and steep to desired strength and taste, but don't over-steep or the taste may become bitter.
Add in sugar, cream, lemon, mint sprig or other ingredients as desired. Enjoy immediately.
