I get about 3 times the mass of tea in a tea bag of water mint (mentha aquatica) leaves. I then get 2 teabags of earl grey caffeinated tea and I put it in a tea pot and pour hot water directly onto it and put the lid on and let it brew in the heat, I then get some tapioca pearls and pour it into a cup then pour the tea into the cup over the tapioca pearls. I've noticed that adding mint to tea makes it dissolvew the tapioca pearls, I don't know why. Anyway I mix it around and wait for the tapioca pearls to soften then i sip it and scoop up the tapioca iwth a spoon and chew it and it is an awesome tea that I have frequently. Way more fulfilling than the bland ass yorkshire tea with milk crap that fools drink ad nauseum making their lives unnecesarily worthless.

Newsflash - That shit you're drinking isn't tea anymore (not that the earl grey in there is real tea anyway).

I don't think its elitism, >>1 obviously has no taste for tea so instead he made some disgusting abomination, and >>2 was merely pointing that out.

Buy superior tea leaves. Heat water to the correct temperature for the type of tea leaves (For example, green teas are steeped at a lower temperature ~180 F). Put the heated water into a container with the leaves and let steep for the correct time for the type of tea leaves. Seperate the leaves and the liquid. Either drink the liquid, or pour out that first infusion and pour more water in, steep, then drink (Taste of the first infusion depends on the type of leaf).
