How to brew loose leaf tea in your drip coffee maker

Equipment & supplies needed:

• 1 cone style drip coffee maker, 8-cup or larger (flat basket will not work)
• 1 electric coffee grinder (if your tea leaves are large)
• 1 permanent filter, cone style, like this one
• Loose leaf tea (Twinings doesn’t require grinding)

Directions:

1. If your tea leaves are large, grind the tea (a small amount at a time) to the consistency of finely ground coffee, and store it in an airtight container.
2. Place the permanent filter into the brewing basket of the coffee maker.
3. Measure 3 teaspoons of ground tea and place it into the permanent filter.
4. Fill coffee maker’s reservoir with water, up to the 8-cup line.
5. Turn on your coffee maker and allow the tea to brew into the pot.
6. Enjoy!
