Tea has a long history since its discovery in China. Tea is served as a beverage and is used medicinally.
Here are some pointer for brewing a perfect pot of tea:
*Start with good filtered water
*Bring the kettle of water to a boil
*Warm the teapot with a splash of boiling water; then pour out the water. This water will prime the porcelain resulting in the proper temperature for the infusion to follow
*Add one teaspoon of loose tea for every cup of water, plus "one for the pot." A stainless steel tea ball works great too
*Allow plenty of room for the tea leaves to expand within the tea ball.
*Add boiling hot water to the tea leaves
*Steep the leaves for 3 to 4 minutes. The longer the steeping, the stronger the tea
