Answers:
Perfect! The longer you let the tea steep, the more nutrients you'll get and the stronger the tea will be!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It depends on the tea!. Read the package to see what it recommends!. Most you steep for 4-6 minutes!. Then, it's just personal preference!. also, unless you purchased a decaffeinated tea, the longer you steep- the more caffeine will be in the tea!. It's a myth that tea does not have caffeine!. It can have the same amount of caffeine as coffee!. If you don't drink a lot of tea- figure out what you like- I prefer organic decaffeinated green tea- the flavor is light and green tea has antioxidants!. I add a little soy creamer!. Honey or sugar and lemon are good too!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

hi!. it depends on the tea!. Like my favorite tea is chamolie, i like it iced!. i boil the water, let steep for five (or three if you don't like rich taste) take the tea bag out and put alot of ice in it!. and i totally agree on 'there's no good or bad answers' i never thumbs down either!. hope i helped and didn't sound rude!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

That sounds perfect!.!.!.!.if a tea bag sits in that hot water for a few minutes, thats enough time for the ingredients to mix with the water!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes you will reap the benefits that way even if you add ice!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

That's fine!. Just steep it for at least 5 minutes!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
