Carefully pour the water into your kettle or cup. If you're using a cup, fill it about 3/4 full so you'll have room to add milk later. If you're making loose leaf tea in a teapot, pour about 3⁄4 cup (180 ml) of water for each serving of tea. For tea bags in a teapot, pour around 1 cup (240 ml) of water for each tea bag.  If you're making loose leaf tea in a cup, consider putting the tea into a mesh tea ball or place a strainer into the cup before you add the tea and water. Then you can lift up the strainer or ball to remove the tea leaves. Consider measuring the water the first few times you use the teapot. Then you can begin to eyeball how much water to use once you're comfortable with the teapot.
