This is the Conversation Forum for Ways of Making a Good Cup of Tea << Maghreban Tea Subject: Tea for Two Posted Oct 27, 2002 by Trout Montague   Posting 1 You need a British Racing Green chunky china tea-pot, enough to hold about a pint of water (small but pefectly formed). Fill that pot with hot hot hot water. Then, while the kettle is reboiling take out three tea-bags, or even better 'prepare' (ie ensure you have) three heaped teaspoons of fresh packet tea (do you still get those cards?). Anyway, you know the score - one per cup and one for the pot. Here we have two cups. Kettle boiled. Empty the other water, put into the teapot the tea and then cover vigorously with the new water. No hurry allow this to stew for a few of minutes. Let the flavour flood out. Buit not too long or your get tannin attack. In each of two good strong cups/mugs, (none of this frilly bone china nonsense), put a half teaspoon of white sugar. Cover with tea from the pot (use a strainer if you used tea-leaves) and then dribble in a few spots of milk. That's it. Ready fro drinking.
