How do you brew tea?!

You put a teabag in a cup (or two in a teapot).*
You boil a kettle.
You pour boiling water into the cup/teapot.
You let it sit (or "draw" as the process is known) for a couple of minutes; certainly not five!
You add milk and sugar to taste.
You drink and enjoy.

*Traditionally, you preheat the cup/teapot with some hot or boiling water beforehand. The hotter the water you pour over the leaves the better, so you don't want to lose some heat by pouring boiling water into a cold receptable.


Not trying to be smart, but it's not that difficult.

PS - the Irish drink lots of tea, so I know what I'm talking about!
