Earl Grey

🔥 Prep

• Measure out 1 tsp of Earl Grey tea leaves.
• Measure out 200 ml of cold water.

🔥 Cook

• 1. Pour the 200 ml of water into a small saucepan and place over high heat until it reaches a rolling boil (boiling, about 2-3 minutes).
• 2. Once the water is boiling, remove the saucepan from heat and immediately pour the hot water over the 1 tsp of Earl Grey tea leaves placed in a teapot or infuser.
• 3. Cover the teapot and let the tea steep for 3 minutes to allow the bergamot aroma to infuse.
• 4. After steeping, remove the tea leaves (or lift the infuser) and pour the brewed tea into a serving cup.
• 5. Allow the tea to cool for 1 minute if desired before drinking.

🔥 Serve

• Serve the Earl Grey tea hot, optionally with a slice of lemon or a splash of milk.
• Accompany with traditional British biscuits such as shortbread or digestive cookies.
• Enjoy alongside a slice of lemon drizzle cake or a plain scone with clotted cream and jam.
