How do you like your Tea? Brewed, mashed, stewed are all words that come into play.

This is how I make mine:

Boil Water
Add tea bag to normal sized mug
Add boiling water to mug & tea bag
Quick stir with tea spoon
Leave for a couple of minutes
Squeeze tea bag and take out
Add milk (not too milky but not too dark/strong)

And there you have it my perfect cup of tea!

If I’m honest I cant be doing with all that straining of tea leaves etc, lets face it we aren’t all dining with the queen! for me its got to be PG Tips and made in the above routine!

I know people who add the milk first, which I think is a disaster! I also know people who add more water to ‘top it up’, but although it sounds a bit daft I think your tea can be too watery if done this way, a bit thin.

Oh yeah, and one more thing, if your going to stir the drink then blummin stir it! dont just tickle the side of the mug with the tea spoon. Give it some welly!

…also it has to be accompanied by McVities Chocolate Digestives (but thats a story for another day)….
