3 pages of tea recipes who knew LOL!
When I was a young woman I recall an interview by an american news person of Princess Diana and Diana gave the instructions for making "real" british tea. The key was to take the water off the fire and add the bags at the exact moment before it starts to boil...letting water boil releases the oxygen in the water.
I take two cups of water, seven tea bags and make a concentrate, I let it steep no longer than six or seven minutes the discard the bags (Don't squeeze the bags..this is where the bitter is) I run cold water over the bags when filling the container with the concentrate and water to pitcher.
