      What now? Why is anyone squeezing a tea bag? Is this some sort of catholic, I deserve to be miserable kind of thing? Why ruin your tea with fines and bitter tannins?

          ££££££££££££££££££££££££££ As long as you’re drinking it black (no milk), when you’re finished, you can just pour on more hot water, and get a free drink. Your free drink will be slightly weaker than the previous one. You can then repeat this until all flavour is gone. ££££££££££££££££££££££££££

        Welp my super catholic mom squeezes her teabags until not a single drop more comes out. It’s awful. I never squeeze a teabag!

        Otherwise the teabags drips all over the surface!

        If you must know, most of the time I don’t use a teabag. I use loose leaf in a teapot. No squeezing required.

      I could relate and have experienced at some point in my life all of these issues except that squeezing method. I personally just let tea bag in cup for 5 min or so and then squeeze it with my fingers when it is not boiling hot.
