Pour the water over the teabag in your favourite cup. Stir once and then wait. Once brewed to your taste, remove the bag. Add a splash of milk (if that's your thing) and stir. Try adding the milk to the cup first, for a smoother taste.
Top Tip
If you're after a builders brew in a mug, try doubling up on teabags.
Heat the pot with a little boiling water, and then pour away. Add your teabags to the pot and fill with fresh water, just off the boil. Stir once and steep for 3-5 minutes and you're ready to pour into your favourite cup. Add milk and sugar to taste. Pour the infusion into the milk for a smoother brew.
Top Tip
Adjust for different teapot sizes based on the rule of one teabag for every 200ml, with one for the pot.
This is far more than just tea. Each gift is designed to evoke memories of tea shared together — a quintessentially English reminder of life’s little joys and all those special moments yet to come.

"Lovely tin and great tea, bought to have the war time memories collection set. Only 1 to get now for the full set. Love the design and tins are good quality. I just wish they had more different planes on the tins, i love the battle of britain tin and the dam busters tin which i loved for the planes that were on them, then looked for more planes and found instead there was a war time memories set, so i bought the 3 others available to try have a full set."
"Lovely tin excellent tea. A gift much appreciated"
"Absolutely love these tins, great designs, great for gifts."
"As a long-time member and poppy appeal organiser for the RBL I raise funds, recently, by putting on displays in local venues around Derbyshire showing the effect of rationing on the population. I have received donations from various companies and bought the tea caddies, to emphasise that a 'cuppa' really did lift the spirits. Using loose leaf tea is a novelty for many youngsters and although not keen at first, they really do appreciate the difference from teabags when tried. I'm looking forward to doing more and continue introducing youngsters to service veterans in carehomes . Thank you for your prompt delivery and lovely tins!"
"I love my tea caddy! The design is wonderful as someone who has an interest in WW2."
"A beautiful tea caddy, I wasn't even expecting it to come with tea bags, but it did, l have now bought three of them as they are such nice tins."
"Brilliant. Although I was young I remember ration books. I will not be 80 until next year the country was still getting over the war. I still have a ration book."
"Wonderful gift to celebrate the VE Day anniversary"
"Love it 😍"
"A perfect gift to celebrate a wartime show"
