Just Hot Water and Add Tea or Coffee

Nafis Light

It is easy enough
and traditional
and no issue with it whatsoever,
Teabag, Tea Leaves, Tea Powder, or Coffee Powder...and Hot Water.

 

Like Green Tea
of different brands or different countries,
They taste somewhat different
and it is something of a VARIATION.

 

Just like coffee powder...for example,
Just add in some spoons of it;
Maybe teaspoons or tablespoons
and no more of that midnight blues.

 

Perhaps Be Creative
like a mixture of two or three different teabags
or that butter with coffee
and you just might be like me.

 

----
With Love,
J44

  • Comment from author about the poem: Actually a Coffee Capsule Machine was bought today (not by me) and I was told that I could use it next time. It came to me that the person who bought it somehow favours luxury and does not really know about teas or coffee. So instead of making a poem to express that, I thought it might be better to make one that expresses how much I prefer the typical way (teapot, teabag, coffee powder).

  • ANGELA & BRIAN

    Thanks for sharing & scaring F44 ~ Brian here ~ you are on very sacred GROUND.
    The Old English Tea Ceremony ~ as still practised by out Grandparents ~ is a Ritual INDEED ! The teapot (Silver or Cermic) is always warmed (filled with boiling water beforehand !) The heated pot is then emptied and the required amount of Loose Leaf Tea is then added followed by Boiling Water and then stired vigorously and a Tea Cosy is placed over the Tea Pot and it is allowed to BREW for five minutes ! The tea is then poured unto a China Cup (with saucer) through a silver tea strainer ! Milk or Lemon & Sugar or Sweetener are then added to the drinkers taste. If another round of TEA is reqired then a FRESH BREW is made.
    Coffe is always prepared from fresh Ground Coffee using a Percolator etc etc ! Tea & Coffee should always be a CEREMONY and never INSTANT ! I rest my case !

    Blessing & Peace to You & Yours
    Yours BRIAN & ANGELA ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’™

      Thanks a lot on that information. Tea Ceremonies are not something that everyone practices or even knows of. A friend of mine became a Tea Brewing Instructor (might not be the right title) and opens a tea shop, so he knows about making tea.

      All I can is that if I learned of this (not just theory), I will practice it...because I drink tea a lot and I respect tradition.
