Seven ways to cut the cost of a cuppa even further as price of tea & milk falls
BAGGING a saving just got simpler after a recent fall in the price of tea and milk.
Cheaper cuppas are sure to give the nation a lift.
And here are some tips for cutting the cost even further.
COMMUNI-TEA: Fancy a free brew and a chat? Hungry Horse pubs will be hosting Communi-tea Cuppas events at least once a month and each guest will get two free cups of Yorkshire Tea.
It’s part of a commitment to combat loneliness in 2024 and a great way to meet people.
GO GREEN: Instead of tea bags, invest in a reusable tea infuser such as the Ikea Idealisk one for £1. Fill it with loose leaf tea, steep and enjoy.
GO BIG: Purchasing tea in bulk is a savvy way to save money in the long run.
Look for retailers or online stores that offer discounts for buying larger quantities.
By stocking up on your favourite varieties you will not only enjoy savings per cup, but ensure you never run out when the craving strikes.
TEA-RRIFIC IDEA: Sign up to become a free MyWaitrose member at waitrose.com, then pop into the supermarket with your reusable cup, scan your membership card and get your free cuppa.
BOILING POINT: Only boil the water you will need for your brew.
Or a thermal flask can keep leftover water hot for future cups, saving energy as you won’t have to stick the kettle on again.
BAG A BARGAIN: Don’t let leftover tea leaves go to waste. Instead, consider keeping your used bag for a second infusion.
Many varieties, particularly loose leaf teas, can be steeped multiple times without going bland.
Just let your second cuppa brew for slightly longer to extract the remaining flavour.
BREW-TIFUL TASTE: Rather than spending on several flavoured blends, use ingredients you already have at home.
Add a splash of lemon juice, a drizzle of honey or even a sprinkle of cinnamon to black tea for a fresh take on your usual cuppa.
