[What follows is an unnecessarily indepth tutorial on how to make tea. He starts with explaining one should put the water in the teapot once it's boiled, and the tea leaves in a strainer inside the teapot. But with herbal tea, this should be done only after the water has been given some time to cool down, in order to keep the flavour of the leaves. Then it should be left to steep according to the strength and taste preference... He goes on like this for a while, and also outlines the differences between herbal teas and ordinary green teas and black teas, which have caffeine and aren't suitable before sleeping.

At the end of this tl;dr, the tea leaves have steeped sufficiently to be served, so he looks at Rayfa.]

Would you like to pour a cup for both of us? Make sure you hold the lid so that it does not slip. You can also add honey or lemon if you should like to sweeten yours.

[Hopefully that wasn't an information overload??? (Yes it was.)]
