Here is how to make the perfect cup of Earl Grey Tea.

Step 1. Empty the Kettle and add fresh water.

Step 2: Boil the water.

Step 3: Get an empty cup/mug and 1 teaspoon of white sugar.

Step 4: Add one Earl Grey tea bag. I recommend Dilmah tea bags.

Step 5: Add boiling water. Fill it up to about 1.5cm from the top of the cup.

Step 6: Allow to sit for 3-5 minutes. I generally leave it for 5 minutes. If you leave it for 8 minutes, it will be too strong and disgusting.

Step 7: After 3-5 minutes, remove the teabag, squeezing out all the water inside it.

Step 8: Add milk, up to about 0.5cm from the top of the cup.

Step 9: Stir, and you are nearly finished.

Step 10: Enjoy.
