Brewing black tea requires attention to detail. Brewing a cup of fragrant and mellow black tea is not an easy task, so how should black tea be brewed to taste its best? Let's take a look below!
1. Use fresh cold water and bring it to a boil in the kettle.
Fill the kettle with fresh tap water and bring it to a boil. The air contained in tap water helps fully draw out the aroma of the black tea, making tea brewed with such water particularly delicious.
2. Pour in freshly boiled water, taking care to avoid significant temperature changes.
After the water boils, you can let it cool slightly, but be careful to avoid letting the temperature change too much, and do not let it sit for too long.
3. Wait for the correct steeping time.
Whether black tea tastes good or not is greatly related to the steeping time. Quick brewing cannot release the tea's fragrance. The steeping time for black tea ranges from 2 minutes to 3.5 minutes, decreasing accordingly.

4. Pour the boiling water into the teapot to brew the tea.
Pouring the water about 30 seconds after it reaches a rolling boil is most suitable for brewing black tea.
5. Add sugar or milk to taste.
Some people prefer the original color and flavor of the tea, while others like to add sugar or milk. Adjust according to personal preference.
6. Carefully measure the amount of tea leaves.
To brew a delicious cup of black tea, the amount of tea leaves must also be controlled. Using the right amount allows you to fully enjoy the rich, original flavor of the black tea while also providing the pleasure of multiple infusions.
