  1. Fill 3/4 of a mug with water

    Mug of water

  2. Pour water into saucepan and boil

  3. Add two teaspoons of LOOSE tea. I use Kenyan Tea, but any tea with the maximum strength indicator from your preferred retailer will suffice. Teabags are for mugs.

  4. Add some spices to taste. I use around half a teaspoon.

    Ginger powder, black/white pepper, cinnamon, cloves

  5. Add a few drops from your vial of tears accumulated over months of 2020 existential dread

  6. Do fourty star jumps.
