[Bonanza]

Boil water in a measuring cup in the microwave or in a pot or kettle on the range.
Put 1 teaspoon per each cup you want to drink.
If you're making tea for a few cups, ad an extra teaspoon.

Let the tea "steep" and judge it by the color.
If you like dark tea, let it sit there for at least 5 minutes.
Use a small strainer held over your cup and there you go.

If you don't want to do it that way, buy a tea ball.
