I'm new to newsgroups and wanted to know how other countries brewed
their teas. If they used infusers, if they brew the tea right in
their cup and drink it within a few minutes, if they used a tea kettle
and pour out all the tea at once, using tea balls, or mesh screens,
etc.

Thanks for answering.

I'm not a country, just an individual. But Kansas City, Missouri, has
the best tap water in the country, and for all I know in the world. I
take a RevereWare pan, newly washed or used only for tea water, and
put seven or fourteen ounces of tap water in it. Bring water to
beginning to bubble for green tea or a rolling boil for black tea.
Put about a teaspoon of tea in an infusor and put infusor in an 8
ounce mug. Pour prepareed water in the infusor. Steep just under 3
minutes or whatever the directions say. Remove black tea infusor
and discard tea, or green tea infusor with tea and put in another mug
for later reinfusion. Do not adulterate prepared tea. Wait till it's
cool enough to drink and drink. Toci
