Tea Making by George Orwell

• Use tea from India or Ceylon not China.
• Use a teapot, preferably ceramic. 
• Warm the pot over direct heat. 
• Tea should be strong, six spoons of leaves per litre. 
• Let the leaves move around the pot. 
• No bags or strainers. 
• Take the pot to the boiling kettle. 
• Stir or shake the pot. 
• Drink out of a tall, mug-shaped teacup. 
• Don’t add creamy milk. 
• Add milk to the tea, not vice versa. 
• No sugar!

Detailed instructions on how to make tea by George Orwell - the only Nobel Laureate born in Bihar. Quite insightful to say the least.
