Mr Steep often steeps tea until he remembers to drink it. He enjoys this laissez faire approach, but the Gongfu method has seduced him, despite the requisite mindfulness to tea-making.
Mr Steep mostly avoids flavoured teas: flavouring rarely makes something out of nothing.
Mr Steep likes tea plain, or variously with lemon, fruit juice, honey, spices, cow’s milk or soy milk, as appropriate.
Mr Steep applies this philosophy to good coffee, too.
