How many times can you use a tea bag?!


Question:

How many times can you use a tea bag?

I just keep on using the same one, and it works and all... so...


Answers:
Until they break.

They are meant for one time use.

once are u retarted!

until the tea runs out - standard tea bags are made for more than one cup, and can easily be used for 2 or more - so it's up to your personal preference on how you like your tea really! (good recycling there)

I'm guessing about 10 times? the question is fine by the way lol i dont mind

just once

There are a couple of possibilities to explain why you can re-use a tea bag and find that it still works.

One is that you put so much milk and/or sugar into it that you don't really notice that the tea is missing.

Another is that you buy a rather cheap grade of tea so there's not much difference between a fresh teabag and one that's a week old.

The only other thing I can think of is that you may really just not like tea in the first place.

i can use 2-3 times a tea bag

i get two cups a bag

as many times as you like,remember the tea will be weeker every cup.

How nasty! Just use the tea bag one time.

ice tea...1
hot tea...2

i think 2 or 3 times. i've done that

Usually it's best to use it once so you get the best flavor. But I don't see anything wrong with using one over and over.

twice

only once to get the best from the tea

Teabags are meant to be used once.

But I know Chinese tea drinkers sometimes put a few leaves in their water container and keep adding water to it to top it out throughout the day.

I would suggest only once if making iced tea, but if you're making hot tea by the cup, I've seen my mother make two or three cups with the same bag.

If you get a wasp or bee sting, a moist used tea bag is good to put over the sting - it helps draw the poison out.

1 million times - but go easy on the water !!!

I can go about twice if I don't leave it in the hot water too long.My Aunt Jenny used to put two tea bags in one cup and let it seep the full five minutes.Really strong to drink.

Two or three depending on your taste but I can only do it once
