1. Boil water in a kettle. 2. While waiting for the water to boil pour the loose tea in the teapot. It is better to warm the teapot beforehand so it does not lose the heat while the hot water is poured into it. The best way to do it is placing the teapot on the top of the kettle. If you are using samovar place the teapot on the top of samovar. 3. When water starts boiling, pour it into the teapot. The tea should be put straight into the teapot. Do not use any strainers, bags or other devices to separate the tea from the hot water. 4. After making the tea, stir it a little bit and leave the leaves to settle for a few minutes. Keep the teapot on samovar or the kettle to keep it warm. Indian Barooti tea needs about 4 minutes to settle.
