This is a part of activities put together by Suffolk Artlink to complement Friends Around the Table activity boxes for groups to use with or without a group leader. We hope that people beyond those taking part in Friends Around the Table can also enjoy these.

Carefully add hot water (80 – 90 C)
If using a mug, leave to steep for 7 minutes.
(If using rose, steep for 3 minutes as it has a strong flavour)
If using a brew pot, put the lid on and leave to steep for 10 minutes. (giving you time to try out another activity while you wait).
Lift your mug or open the lid of the pot, breath in the aroma, pour out the tea if using a brew pot, relax and enjoy.
