who hear actually makes thier tea with the specific temperature of water that is suppose to go with that type of tea?
- I do!Melanie
- can you tell me how you accomplish getting the correct temperature?robco
- Boil the kettle. Heat cup with some water, boil kettle again - pour immediately. This is for British-style black tea, of course.Nairn
- course.Nairn

I have an electric water boiler that shuts off at desired temperature.identity - Yes, it makes all the difference and the time it brews as wellali

- yes with the straw..epill
- if you go to an argentine steak house ask for it...epill
- although the idea of sitting down with a group and passing it around is nice, it just tastes like shit.lvl_13
- YUUM!! this will give you a boost of energy like no other. the straw/filter is called a bombilla.sea_sea
- Yerba Mate gives me a weird creative high! Not kidding. I become super creative on it.Melanie
- I quite like the taste - and Mel's right, it does give you an odd, distinctly non-cafeinne buzz.Nairn
- everyone and their moms drink that in arg, you see them on the bus with the thermos n shitMiguex

my parents pre-boil some water and pour just a little in the cups prior to pouring in the tea to heat up the cups... not sure if that is tradition thing or just their own ritual...
