1 Place the tea bag or tea leaves in a microwave-safe cup or mug.

2 Add enough water to cover the tea bag or tea leaves, approximately 1 to 2 tablespoons.

3 Open the microwave and place a cup in it. Turn the microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds.

4 Cover the cup with a napkin, book, or bowl to brew the tea. Leave it on for 2 minutes.

5 Remove the napkin, book, or bowl. And take away the tea bag too, just be careful, it's hot. Resist the temptation to squeeze the leftover tea bag into a cup. It can become bitter. If you want to add sugar, honey, lemon - now is the time to do it. Then pour water up to the rim.

6 If you like scalding hot tea, microwave the cup for another 1 minute.

7 Enjoy your tea!
