Forget teabags. Use loose leaf and a decent infuser. I prefer the
basket style infusers to the crappy teaballs that hang on a chain.

Sometimes the second cup is a bit more nuanced...with a more
discernable character. Sometimes I prefer the second cup to the first,
especially when drinker certain pu-ehr varieties.
