Okay, so I saw this super cute idea online about making a heart shape in your tea, and I just had to try it. I’m a sucker for anything cute and aesthetic, you know?
Getting Started
First, I grabbed my favorite mug – it’s this big, comfy one that just feels right for a cozy tea session. Then, I boiled some water. While that was happening, I picked out my tea. I went with a lovely loose-leaf Earl Grey because, well, it’s my go-to.
The Process
Here’s where the magic (or, well, the attempt at magic) happens.
- I carefully placed a heart-shaped cookie cutter in the * has to be metal one.
- I filled mug with loose tea leaves around the outside of the cookie cutter.I tried really hard that make sure the tea leaves is evenly.
- Then I slowly, and I mean slowly, poured the hot water into the center of the cookie cutter. The idea is that the water will push the tea leaves out to the sides, and when you remove the cookie cutter, you’ll have a heart shape. Sounds easy, right?
- Ok,I finished pour,and pulled the cookie cutter out.
The Result
Well, let’s just say it wasn’t perfect. It was more of a…blob-ish heart? Kinda heart-ish? The edges weren’t super defined, and some of the tea leaves definitely didn’t cooperate. But, hey, it was still kinda cute! And the tea tasted delicious, so that’s a win in my book. I might need a bit more practice to get that perfect, Instagram-worthy heart, but it was a fun little experiment.I took a photo for my memory,it doesn’t looks good,but I love it.
I think I’ll try that * I need change other tea leaves.
