Hello Andy ZR2ACJ ..and your quest to find the Perfect Cup of Tea.
It seems, after reading a few replys to your question, there has
been a lot of activity in the form of replys coming back at'ya
with their version.
Not all make that perfect cup of tea..in I think what you are
after ..."in the cup". A few have replied to you about the
tea pot, and how the tea is stored in their homes, either
in a teabag form which is just convient, or loose leafs in
a box...coming from this or that country.
When I asked a close friend, whom I thought might knew the
answer...well he called me to say..."To many to list".
When I make my cup of tea, I have a few different ways myself
even justing one of those acorns on a chain to hang, either
in the tea pot or in the cup ...and of course, sometimes
I add suger and milk or none.
One of the more interesting ways to enjoy tea..is the system
used by some in South America. The vessel they use to carry
the tea and the hot water...doesn't look like the average
tea cup, but a rather large dark colored eggplant dried
and hollowed out to make a nice drinking cup. The tea
looks like chopped green material..and to drink it, one
puts in something like a straw with a strainer ... great
taste...and it does last a long time.
If you want a pic of it Andy...or readers, send me a email
and I will send you one I got in Argentina.
So time for a tea ...prepared any old way..with whats here
or green tea from my friends in China ...
