And no, the microwave is not a valid option.
First step is to gather sticks under the bushes.
Start a fire using paper, newspaper, cardboard, then add sticks and make a larger fire.
Heat up water until boiling.
Add tea bags to thermos and pour the water inside. Now we have 2 days worth of hot tea.
Optional delicious step: pop popcorn
I usually drink coffee so the water goes in before the teabag, although to be fair the teabag never goes in.
Thankyou for preventing microwave comments. Its an abomination
Take your hatchet and slash some leaves in the misty fields of Kerala. Make sure it’s monsoon flush, so roughly july to september. Then, chop up an old Ginkgo Biloba that looks wise. Leave it to dry in a Kenyan plain for three years, and head for Nepal. There, you will gather the purest glacier water there is. By then, your tea leaves will be dust. Go buy some Lipton and microwave tap water, it’s all you can do at this point. And, uh, teabag first
Sounds like that guy who made a sandwich from scratch: growing wheat, raising chicken etc. He said it was „okay“
Tea bag first, then freshly boiled hot water.
