How to make a perfect cuppa!
In 3rd grade at primary school (many, many, many years ago, when God was a boy! ) my 3rd grade teacher gave us the "recipe" for a perfect cuppa!
This is what she taught us.
- Firstly always put fresh water in the water to boil. Never reboil old water. Boil the kettle
- Rinse the teapot out with hot water.
- If you are using tea leaves 1 heaped teaspoon per person
- Put tea leaves or bag in the teapot and let it draw for approximately 1 minute, less time if you want a weaker cuppa or more time for a stronger cuppa.
Add sugar and milk, if required, at the very end. By leaving the milk until the end as you can vary the amount as to the strength you want your cuppa
Ahhhhhhh Robur!
