To make a cup of tea, start by boiling some water in a kettle. While the water is heating up, get a mug and put a tea bag in it. Once the water is boiling, carefully pour it into the mug, over the tea bag. Let the tea steep for a few minutes, depending on how strong you like it. After steeping, remove the tea bag and add milk and sugar to taste. Stir everything together and enjoy your hot cup of tea.

Here are clear, step-by-step instructions for making a cup of tea:

  1. Fill a kettle with cold water and heat it to boiling.

  2. Select a mug of your desired size and place a tea bag inside the mug.

  3. Once the water reaches a rolling boil, carefully pour the hot water into the mug, filling it to your preferred level.

  4. Allow the tea to steep for 3-5 minutes, depending on the desired strength and the type of tea used. Refer to the tea packaging for specific steeping times.

  5. Using a spoon, gently press the tea bag against the side of the mug to extract any remaining flavor.

  6. Remove the tea bag from the mug and discard it.

  7. If desired, add milk to the tea. The amount of milk can be adjusted based on personal preference.

  8. If you prefer sweetened tea, add sugar or your preferred sweetener to taste. Start with a small amount and gradually add more until the desired sweetness is achieved.

  9. Using a spoon, stir the tea well to combine the milk and sweetener evenly.

  10. Allow the tea to cool slightly until it reaches a comfortable drinking temperature.

Your hot cup of tea is now ready to be enjoyed!
