Ah, a good cup of tea?  Asda's or Lidl's Earl Grey are the best imo.

1) boil kettle
2) put tea bag + 1 sugar into cup
3) once kettle has boiled, pour water directly onto teabag (like mikey does) almost immediately
4) stir for approx 2 mins giving the teabag the occasionnal squeeze against the side of the cup
5) dispose of the teabag
6)add a spot of milk
7) leave for 1 minute then drink

Before anyone asks, yes I like my cuppas piping hot :-)

Another way to make the perfect cuppa:

Don't have one all day, then you'll appreciate it more when you do have it :-)

I tend to have one cup of tea per day or less, but if I haven't had one in a while, chances are the first one will be bloody awful :-)


:-o  One per day!?  No wonder you're asking for tips :-P
