Exact quantities, then the method.
The Brisk Refreshing Cup plays to exactly what Tetley Seriously Refreshing is for: a lively, clean, brisk black tea that wakes you up rather than a heavy, malty sit-down brew. Brewed properly it gives a bright cup that is just as good black with a slice of lemon as it is with a splash of milk.

Serves one. Use full boiling water and a standard steep, then take it however you like, the brisk character carries both milk and lemon.
You'll need
- 1 tea bag of Tetley Seriously Refreshing
- 200ml freshly boiled water (100C)
- Milk to taste (optional)
- A slice of lemon or sugar to taste (optional)
Method
- Bring fresh water to the boil, a full 100C, and pour it over the bag.
- A steep of 3 to 4 minutes gives a brisk, refreshing cup.
- Press the bag to the side of the mug as you take it out.
- Take it as you like, with a splash of milk or a slice of lemon. Its clean, brisk character suits both.
- Choose milk or lemon, not both; the acid in lemon curdles milk into specks.
