Answers:
That is adorable.
Basically, boil or microwave the water.
Put the tea bag in the cup.
Pour the boiling water, and let sit for three minutes.
Don't stir, or dunk, or anything that most of us Americans do.
It gets too much acid in the tea, and ruins the flavor.
Take the tea bag out after three minutes.
Herbal? You can add a little bit of sugar to tase. Go by 1/2 teaspoon increments.
English breakfast, regular Lipton or Tetley (anything black pekoe)?
You can add either milk or lemon but not both.
HAlf and Half or cream is too thick for tea.
If you make more than one cup, and you have a separate pot or bowl you can cover, put two cups' worth in for one tea bag. If too weak, next time use two. This is called steeping.
And if you can, boil water in a ceramic or glass pot. Metal makes the best of water a little tinny.
Enjoy!

boil a kettle, pour some boiling water into a cup and add a teabag. add milk and sugar to taste.

it's rather complicated and requires a degree in chemistry.

ice tea-
boil about 6 cups of water in a pan then add 4 tea bags let it stand for one hour, then put the tea into a pitcure and add about 5 cups of cold water, then you can add sugar if you want.

hot tea-
fill a coffee mug with water and add 1 tea bag. microwave for about 3 mins. then you can add sugar and creamer if you want or some people like honney in it

heat water to the boiling point and put it into a cup. Just put the tea bag into the water and move it back and forth until the tea is colored (to the taste you like). Light color is weak, dark color is strong tea. People add creamer/milk or lemon....or sugar/honey, or sometimes they just drink it plain. There are several kinds of teas (for relaxation, for upset stomach, for dinner and socializing, for weight loss). I'd be wondering just what is in the tea bag that your friend gave you (hopefully it came straight from the box of a well known brand like Lipton or Constant Comment or Tetley). Otherwise I'd be afraid to test it.

haha im the same

Boil or microwave the water.
Put the teabag into the cup.
After drinking it a couple of times, you'll know how strong you like it.
