Here’s where it gets personal. Do you want a gentle morning hug or a bold afternoon kick? For a lighter, more delicate cup, steep your Lipton bag for just 2 minutes. For that classic, robust flavor that can stand up to milk and sugar, go for the full 4 to 5 minutes.
Pro tip: Never squeeze the tea bag against the side of your mug with a spoon. That releases bitter tannins from the leaves. Instead, just let it drip naturally. Your future self will thank you.
