A Proper Pot of Yorkshire Tea Original Loose Leaf

teas.co.uk · 7 min · Serves 1 (scale up for a pot)

You'll need

• 1 heaped teaspoon of Yorkshire Tea Original Loose Leaf per cup, plus one for the pot
• Freshly boiled water (100C), about 200ml per cup
• A teapot with an infuser, or a separate strainer
• Milk and sugar to taste

Method

1. Warm the teapot, then add one heaped teaspoon of loose leaf per cup plus one for the pot.
2. Pour over freshly boiled water at a full 100C and steep for 4 to 5 minutes.
3. Stir once, then pour through a strainer into the cups.
4. Add milk and sugar to taste. Loose leaf brews stronger than a bag.
5. Give the leaves room to move in a roomy pot, as cramped leaves brew unevenly.
