Things You'll Need
Tea kettle for boiling water
Water
Loose tea leaves
Teapot with lid
Tea strainer
Cup and saucer
Milk
Teaspoon
Sugar
Boil water on a stove using a tea kettle. Be sure to boil a full tea kettle's worth of water and use only fresh water when making tea. If you use water that's been standing in the pot, your tea will not be as flavorful.
Pour some of the boiling water into a teapot. Move the water around the teapot by shaking the teapot carefully for a few seconds. This helps to warm the teapot itself, which then keeps the tea warm and improves the steeping process. Discard the water used to preheat the teapot.
Place the loose tea leaves into the teapot. Use 1 tsp. loose tea leaves per person. Also, add an extra 1 tsp. loose tea leaves into the pot.
Cover the tea leaves in the teapot with more boiling water. Use about 8 oz. boiling water per person.
Close the teapot with its lid and let the tea steep for 3 to 5 minutes. Stir the tea once during the steeping process.
Add the milk of your choosing to a teacup. Look for a delicate, ornate china teacup and saucer for an authentic English tea experience. The English Tea Store has a good selection online (see Resources below).
Strain the hot tea from the teapot into your teacup. The strainer helps to catch the loose tea leaves so they don't end up in your cup of tea.
Sprinkle sugar into the teacup to taste.
Enjoy your English cup of tea with scones for breakfast or with finger sandwiches and pastries as part of an English afternoon tea.

How to Make English Tea
The English are often portrayed as obsessed with tea drinking - and with good reason. It's a huge part of English and British culture, both historically and today. This article will show you how to make and enjoy tea the way millions of English (and Scottish, Welsh and Irish folks) do it every day. Impress your British friends with a proper "cuppa"!
Steps
1. 
Pick your tea. This is by far the most important step to making perfect British tea. Ideally, go to a tea store and buy a good quality brand of tea. British tea is made with black tea leaves, so look for that when buying your tea. Earl Grey is one tried and true classic, but many English people also drink what's just called "black tea," or occasionally "breakfast tea" or "British tea."

Some of the go-to British brands include PG Tips, Tetley's, and Yorkshire Tea.
If you want to buy tea leaves, rather than bags, that works, too; you'll need either a teapot or an infuser (for use with a cup). Most English people don't bother with the added hassle of loose leaf tea, but some swear by it.
Be aware that English tea is often stronger than ones made in America or other countries, so look for an imported brand if you are located outside Britain but want real British strength.

2. 
Boil the water. Use freshly drawn water - using the old water in the kettle can result in scaly, scummy tea. You can boil in an electric kettle, a stovetop kettle, or even a pot if needed. Microwaving the water isn't recommended, but is also doable.
If you have a temperature controlled kettle, you want the water to be at least 200 degrees(F) or 93 degrees(C).
3. 
Get your tea or tea bags ready in the pot or mugs. While the water is boiling, prepare your receptacle.
If you're using mugs, put a teabag in each mug. Very few people use cups and saucers at home. Big mugs (beakers) are usual, for an everyday cup of tea.
If you want to make tea in a teapot, warm the teapot with hot water first (fill it, and then drunk it out), and then add one teabag per person. This ensures that your tea will stay hot longer.
If you're making tea with loose-leaf tea in a pot, add 1 teaspoonful of tea per cup, plus one extra teaspoonful for the pot. Generally speaking, 3 teaspoonfuls of good quality tea in a two-cup teapot works fine. Some people say 3 grams of loose tea per person makes the perfect cup of tea.
4. 
Pour boiling water over the teabag, and stir briefly. It is essential that the water is boiling, in order to release all the flavour of the tea. Don't settle for warm or even plain hot tea; make sure it's boiling.
5. 
Wait! The tea needs time to develop its flavour. This is called brewing, steeping or drawing. Let stand for a minute or two for a cup of tea, or 3 to 5 minutes for a pot.
6. 
Remove the teabag. It can be added to your garden compost bin.
Never squeeze the tea bag; simply remove and throw away. Squeezing it will release a bitter taste into your tea.
7. 
Add milk and sugar to taste. Depending on which way you brew the tea, the milk is important. Most people opt for semi-skimmed (low-fat) pasteurised milk these days; however, to achieve the classic taste, use fully sterilised milk.
Look for the right colour. The perfect cup of tea will have a dark orange-brown look once the milk has been added and stirred. It will be the perfect temperature to drink after 3 to 5 minutes.
8. 
Edit step
Enjoy your tea!
