Tea drinking is becoming a popular domestic pursuit recently.
But, how to brew a cup of good tea will take time to learn.
There are many ways to brew and drink tea, including pottery
and porcelain or glass cups, big teapot, and tea ceremony method.
Here I want to share with you an easy and convenient way to brew
tea at home and in the office.

It is often said that good tools make good work.
I always brew tea by using a special mug which has a filter and a cover.
It can be easily found in a supermarket.
The steps for brewing the tea are suggested as follows:

1. Put 3 grams of tealeaves into the filter and pour 200C.C.
of boiling water into the mug. When a green tea is to be brewed,
it is better to use water at 75~85℃. The filter is to keep
the tealeaves from mixing with the tea liquor.

2. Brew it with the cover on for about one to two minutes for the first serve.
Please be noted that don't soak the tealeaves in water for too long.
It will make tea liquor bitter and astringent, since the tealeaves
will release too much amount of tannic and caffeine and results
in unpleasant taste. This is why a filter is used to separate tealeaves
and tea liquor right after brewing.

3. Remove the cover and filter together with tealeaves,
and then enjoy your nice tea in the mug.

4. Re-brew 2 to 3 times by repeating the steps 1 to 3.
Please be noted that you should increase the brewing time
by one minute for each serve. But the taste will be getting l
ighter and lighter.


As a saying goes, “A bad workman always blames his tools.”
To avoid being a bad workman, the first thing you have to do
is to find a good teashop, where you always can get the best tea,
best service, and advice on how to easily prepare a cup of good tea.
Trust me, by coming to Doctor Tea, you will get what you want about tea.
