There's one nearby. Have you ever been to one? It's Starbucks for tea with really overpriced tea (and some other items as well). I've been to it once. I do plan to go again, but haven't gotten around to it.

RiP, IMDb: I make my own tea at home. I'm not sure I see the appeal of going into a tea house that is a "Starbucks for tea, with really overpriced tea."

I doubt if I'd go there myself. Still, for those who do frequent the place, I don't knock them for getting into the wonderful world of tea. |

Me, I use exclusively loose leaf (or bulk tea, as it's also known as). IOW, no bags. I like various black teas (English Breakfast blend, which usually contains China Black + Assam leaves), Lapsang Souchong (smoky China tea), Earl Grey, and a few others). I steep my tea leaves in a stainless steel pan for about 3 or 4 minutes, then strain it into a small teapot. |

In fact I'm making some right now. Currently, I'm letting it sit on the stove for a few minutes after it boiled since you're NOT supposed to pour it into your teacup or mug while it's still boiling. Now the timer rang and it's time for my to pour into my mug and let steep for eight minutes.

RiP, IMDb: interesting. That's a pretty busy little cup of tea, I'd say. lol
Do you like green tea alone, un-blended as in your recipe above? Me, I've never acquired a taste for it. But, I'll drink it if offered to me.
