Making a Great Cup of Tea

1) Rinse a teapot with hot water to preheat.
2) Fill teakettle with fresh cold water and bring to a full rolling boil.
3) Use one teaspoon of tea per 6 ounces of water. Place into teapot or infusing basket.
4) Pour boiling water over the tea. (Wait one minute after boiling for green tea)
5) Steep 3 to 5 minutes. It takes time for the leaves to unfold and release their flavor.
