Question:

Can you reuse tea leaves after brewing fresh tea?


Answers:
You could us some of the old and few unused ones if you are trying to stretch.

Some do.

You could but it would taste more watery than like tea.

yes

Yes, you can, but you will have to steep the new infusion longer since the original tea leaves are on their second round and therefore not as strong. Make sure your water is boiling when you pour it over already used leaves. Be patient and look for a darkening color in the new tea brew.

You can, but each time it will be weaker and you will have to steep it longer.

You can, but each time it will be weaker and you will have to add more tea leaves to maker it stronger taste.

I believe only for use as plant food.

It really depends on the tea, most do well with resteeping and some even taste better after a few cycles.

When you go to try resteeping just extend the time by one or two minutes each time

yea definatelly..different teas can be brew few times at least.
