"Preparation purist" is wrong. You don't boil the tea, you steep it in hot water. For some teas, like black tea, you usually boil the water before pouring it over the tea, but other types of tea use water that isn't as hot (e.g. around 70-80°C for green tea).

Also, if you actually want to be an ingredient purist, tea must be made from the leaves of Camellia sinensis (or a closely related species).

You're arguing with a meme that put clogged gutter as pure tea ingredient

[–] [email protected] 56 points 4 months ago (3 children)

Correct. That would be tea as long as it's camellia sinensis.

In China it's called 地沟茶

i mean, if you consider tea to be leaves soaked in water until the flavor comes out, then clogged up gutter water is tea.

What's the proper steeping time for decaying oak leaves "until the flavor comes out"?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I'd say you should steep them for up to a year, that way you get all the taste.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago

Excellent, I'll be ready to sell my current batch this coming October.

In some countries where tee grows naturally you can found riviers and pond where the water carried tea leaves fell from the tree, which give naturally to the water some aroma.

The meme is terrible and shows the creator has taste buds that probably can't distinguish between gutter water and tea (especially after it's been BOILED a few hours).
