- Just how do you make the best cup of Irish tea ? and lets help Mrs Doyle's Irish tea Morning for UNICEF
- So what's the best Irish Tea ? The secrete is in the tea blend , but we will get to that later. So first fill a kettle with water and then bring to it to the boil.
- Now Go On add one teaspoon of fresh loose leaf tea per person and add another for a little Irish luck , add one more tea spoonful for the pot. Let the tea seep for 3 to 5 minutes and strain the loose leaf so that you have a lovely brown radish brew .
- FUN FACT ? In Dublin they Fill 1/3 of each teacup with milk or cream first and pour in the brew but in the West of Ireland the tea brew usually goes in first and then the milk.
- We prefer that the tea goes in first so let's now pour the strong, hot Irish breakfast tea to each cup or teapot and add the cream .
- So what's the secret to the best cup of Irish tea, only Mrs Doyle knows that and she keeps it hidden in her house on the far end of the island.
- So Go On get some friends together and run the ultimate Irish tea drinking contest Go On its Barry's vs Mrs Doyle's , and maybe also organize a Irish tea morning to help raise funds for UNICEF Ireland's current East Africa Appeal https://www.unicef.ie .You decide!
