When it comes to iconic Irish tea, one brand stands out among the rest—Barry's Tea. With a rich history spanning over a century, Barry's has become synonymous with the comforting and invigorating cuppas that grace countless Irish households and tearooms. If you've ever wondered how to brew the perfect cup of Barry's Tea, you've come to the right place.

Here's a simple guide on how to make the perfect cup of Barry's Tea:

Start by boiling fresh water in a kettle or on the stove. The water should be at a rolling boil to ensure the best flavour.
While the water is boiling, warm your teapot or cup by rinsing it with hot water.
Once the water is at a rolling boil, pour it over the tea leaves. Use one teaspoon of tea leaves for each cup of water.
Allow the tea to steep for 3-5 minutes, depending on how strong you like it.
While the tea is steeping, add milk, sugar or honey to taste. The traditional way to make tea in Ireland is to add milk to the cup first and then pour the tea over.
Once the tea has steeped, use a tea strainer or a tea infuser to remove the leaves.
Pour the tea into your cup or teapot and enjoy!

Tips:

Use high-quality loose-leaf tea or tea bags, like Barry's Tea, for the best flavor.
Avoid over-steeping the tea, as it can make it bitter.
Use water that is at the right temperature for the type of tea you are making.
Experiment with different steeping times and amounts of tea leaves to find your perfect cup.
You can also try different types of Barry's tea and find your favorite one like Barry's Gold, Barry's Original Blend, Barry's Decaffeinated and Barry's Earl Grey.
