Brewed directly from the Keurig K Cup Coffee Maker, our tea was prepared within just moments without the mess of the traditional tea bag and spoon we would normally use.

The English Breakfast has always been a basic tea or a tea that has been well known and used in North America. Originating from the British who had first landed in America English Breakfast is made of black tea and is described as being full bodied, rich and robust. When blended with milk and sugar, this style is associated with the Full English Breakfast, the most common type of tea consumed in the United Kingdom. Most every tea manufacture has their own version of an “English Breakfast” and may not include the same black teas as another company. The most common black teas used in this blend are Assam, Ceylon, Kenyan and Keemun in the more expensive blends.

The K Cup Coffee maker also offers a wide variety of K Cups teas available to the consumer. This provides tea drinkers the opportunity to enjoy the same convenience that coffee drinkers do. Like the coffee K Cups it’s really fast and easy to brew a great cup of tea or even hot cocoa.

A hot cup of tea can be ready in a snap with this single cup brewing system. The tea is packed into a plastic cup with a foil top that creates an air-tight seal. When you want a cup of tea, all you need to do is put the K Cup tea into the brewer and put your mug under the dispenser. When the brewing system is started it pierces a hole in the top and the bottom of the cup so that pressurized hot water can flow through the cup and brew the tea. Clean up is just as easy, too. Just throw the K Cup away and wipe down the brewer with a damp sponge or towel.

K Cup teas are perfect for getting a hot cup of tea quickly. It takes just 60 seconds, versus filling a tea kettle, putting it on the stove and waiting for the water to come to a boil; or filling a cup with water and nuking it in the microwave before adding the tea bag and steeping the tea. It’s also a much more efficient use of energy than using a gas or electric stove to heat the water, which can take five to ten minutes; and if you want a second cup of tea, you’d need to reheat the water using even more energy.

The K Cups tea selection includes teas made by names tea drinkers know and trust. There are a wide variety of flavors, including green tea, Chai tea, Earl Grey, Sleep Time, English Breakfast, Lemon, Orange Spice, Organic varieties, Chamomile, and of course plain black tea.

In addition to a wide variety of hot teas to choose from, there are also several that are prepared specifically for making iced tea, including peach, raspberry, lemon and plain iced tea. Making iced tea is just as easy as making hot tea. Just fill a 16 ounce cup with ice and place it under the dispenser. Then place the K Cup tea into the brewing system and start brewing.

In addition to the K Cups tea and coffee K Cups selections, there are also K Cups hot chocolate, so it’s easy to make a cup of hot chocolate in less than a minute, too. This flexibility is especially beneficial when trying to serve a group of people their hot beverage of choice quickly.
