Conversation over tea is an old thing now, Twitter is busy have a conversation about tea. Yes, when a Twitter user posted about how long a tea bag should be dipped in the tea, a debate started online where everyone had their own recipe of a perfect tea. And trust me when it comes to tea, the matter is serious.
A twitter user Joel Golby tweeted, “Simply can’t trust people who don’t leave the tea bag to steep in the cup for a bit. you think you can get enough depth of flavor just by squashing it a lot with the back of a teaspoon? the arrogance. the ego. leave the room and walk away from it.”
That’s when people decided to tell him an ideal time to keep the tea bag in the cup and some even shared their perfect tea recipe. Here are some of the best replies to Joel’s tweet.

Agreed.
I like my water boiling & my teabag in for 10 mins. Cools the water to the perfect temp & gives the tea the perfect "deep steep," as I call it.
Anything less is a waste of water and colonization…how do you think we got tea to begin with? 😒— Mx/Sir TiredInOR@med-mastodon.com and is on 🐳 (@TiredInOR4Now) August 10, 2019

I don't remove the tea bag from the cup. It stays in until the cup is empty.

The tea bag doesn't leave my cup until the tea is finished and the cup is in the sink; only then will I discharge it from its duties.
