Afternoon tea without milk - more than 1 cuppa from teapot

You want each cup black tea "just right" - not too weak not too strong in fact you want both cups to be both the same. Use TWO actual cups - When the tea has 'drawn' in the teapot, pour it into each cup in turn. Any GOOD cafe bar worth their salt etc should provide you with 2 cups.

I just take the teabag out when it's done. Tea stays warmer in the pot than a cup.

But if you have to leave tea in the second cup then add the milk now rather than later as the hotter tea will loose more heat.
