Can You boil water to make tea?
Put in a standard-sized pot significantly more water than is required for one serving of tea, and then bring it to a boil. The higher the quality of your water, the more refined the flavor of your tea will be. Bottled or filtered water is of the highest quality (but not distilled). Before making tea using water from the tap, let the cold water flow for ten seconds before using it.
