Teapot Cup
Really good cup of tea?
Have heard more than one Brit complain that they can't wait to be back home to have a good cup of tea. I have a teapot, electric kettle, box of PG Tips ( box claims it is England's no 1 tea) and a teacup that would do Hyacinth Bucket proud.....now what? Can anyone help a girl out?
Warm the teapot with a little hot water and empty.
Put 2 tea bags (tend to use 1 tea bag per person, but if you are only having tea for one, then 1 tea bag in a pot is pants) and put the equivalent of about 2 large cups of boiling hot water into the tea pot.
Now get your cup and put sugar into it (white sugar, that is) - maybe just one for a cup (we brits tend to favour the "mug" which is larger. NOTE not everyone takes sugar, so you could try with or without.
Plonk some milk on top of the sugar in the cup. We brits favour full fat or semi-skimmed milk - don't know what you've got.
You are waiting for 2-3 minutes for the tea to brew. When the appropriate length of time has passed, give it a little stir with your tea spoon.
Now pour the tea into the waiting cup. Give it all a stir. Get yourself a rich tea or digestive buscuit (although watch out for those digestives because they like to fall apart in the cup).
Sit back and enjoy.
Yum.
