That is the traditional way of brewing tea you have described. I really never have the patience to go through the same process. I just dump in the water, milk, tea, sugar and herbs together and boil it. I let it simmer a while though to get the flavors going. he he he…
Have you ever smelled the vapors rising when the tea is brewing. Amazing smell.

I just found out that Teavana has a store up on the North Side of Indy! I have been buying from them offline for a while and love the Rooibos teas. Once it gets warm again, one of my summer favorites is hibiscus tea with a touch of agave and some lime, over ice. You just have to be careful since it stains.

If you like the taste you get from the popped corn, one to try is the Japanese green tea with puffed rice: called genmai-cha which is one of our favorites year round. Nothing beats sitting down to football on Sundays with a pot of tea and a bag of rice crackers

I love trying all sorts of tea, but I’m not too fancy. However, whenever I go to the local tea house, I try a delicious new blend. Its always fun =D.
Sorry… forgot to say great post – can’t wait to read your next one!

Yes, I have often used a French press – it works great if you don’t have/want to invest in a nice tea pot!

Tea is wonderful! My preference is for a nice whole-leaf oolong on about the second or third steeping.

Incidentally, a French press makes a great vessel for steeping tea.
