How to Make It:
The beverage tea is made from a leaf that has been processed into what we call a tea bag. In order to make tea:
First, the tea bag is placed in a mug or teacup.
Then, you add hot water to the mug or cup and mix it with a tea spoon.
After, you have mixed it to the point that the water has turned light brown, you then add milk to either cool the drink down or make the drink thicker, but adding milk is optional.
After that, you take the teabag out.
Then you add a reasonable amount of sugar.You can add the sugar before you take out the tea bag too.
Mix the drink again.
Enjoy!
