Make The Perfect Cup of Tea

In this day of modern conveniences people have forgotten the fine art of making a cup of tea.

Why go through the process of making a pot of tea if you can just dunk a teabag into a cup?

Teabags are certainly easier. No mess from the loose tea. No straining the tea.

The benefits from using loose tea cannot be denied though.

• Using the loose tea allows you to enjoy not only drinking the tea, but also the ritual of making the tea.


• Buying loose leaf tea is cheaper. Compared cup by cup, the cost for loose tea is nearly half the cost of teabags.


• Superior flavour. The processing methods used to get the tea leaf into the tea bag cause the oils within the leaves to dry up. Most tea bags, especially the cheaper brands merely give you coloured water with little flavour.


• More of the natural antioxidants found in the oils of the tea are retained in the tea.


• Superior quality of leaf. Teabags often contain the "dust" or "fannings", the two lowest grades of tea leaves, left at the bottom of the tea barrel after the better leaves have all been removed.

Given all this why would anyone want to make a cup of tea using a tea bag.

So go ahead, make yourself a perfect cup of tea today. I'll show you how.
