Tea
(To
Make).
Dr.
Kitchener.
All
the
necessary
water
should
be
poured
in
at
once,
as
it
spoils
it
to
have
a
second
drawing.

(To
Make).
Another
Way.
The
water
should
be
fresh
boiled.
Scald
the
tea-pot
and
empty
it
;
then
put
in
as
much
water
as
necessary
for
the
first
cups.
Put
the
tea
on
it,
and
close
the
lid
as
quickly
as
possible.
Let
it
stand
three
minutes
and
a
half,
or
if
the
quantity
be
large,
four
minutes.
Then
fill
the
cups.
By
this
means
the
aroma
is
preserved
instead
of
escaping
with
the
steam,
as
it
does
when
the
water
is
poured
on
the
tea.

Another
Way.
Always
heat
the
tea-pot
before
putting
in
the
tea
by
standing
it
over
hot
water.
A
teaspoonful
of
tea
for
each
person
and
one
over
is
the
usual
allowance,
and
then
make
sure
the
water
boils,
and
the
moment
it
boils
pour
it
over
the
tea,
and
then
let
it
stand
for
six
minutes
(neither
more
nor
less)
to
draw.

the

into
a
kettle
with

cover
it
close,

it
on
the

and
make
it
very
nearly,
but
not
quite,

;
then
take
it
from
the
fire
;
when
the
leaves
sink
it
is
ready.
