Making tea, the creepy way
Hands up who likes drinking tea?
Me too, it refreshes your tired mind, slakes your thirst, and stains your teeth. Sometimes, if my butler is sick, I even like to make my own tea and previously thought that I was doing a reasonable job.
The good people at Lipton however, suggest that I’m missing some very important steps:
I assume Hirameki is a Japanese word which means “Everyone in the office staring and pointing at you“.
They’re right about using freshly boiled water though; I’ve tried boiling a whole batch of water to use throughout the week, but by the second or third day your tea is stone cold.
