We served Earl Grey Tea with the scone in the High Tea challenge. Dilmah describes the tea as “This original Earl Grey Tea offers a rich brew, enhanced with oil of bergamot; it is a distinctive and unique flavour.”
For myself I always prefer Earl Grey Tea both in the mornings and afternoons. Even though brewing tea is very basic and easy, there are guidelines that can be followed ensuring you get the best experience out of your tea.
These are very simple steps to follow. Start by pouring fresh cold water into the kettle. Rinse and warm the teapot with boiling water and pour the used water out. Measure one teaspoon of tea for every cup plus one for the teapot. Place the tea in a tea diffuser and bring the water to the boil. Fill the pot with boiling water and brew the tea 3 – 5 minutes. Remove tealeaves before pouring and cover with a tea pot cozy. If you prefer tea sweet add honey, sugar or agave syrup. Now take pleasure in a perfect Earl Grey tea.
Note: To be more adventurous try cooking food with tea, make mocktails, cocktails or something as simple as an Earl Grey Latte.
