What do you usually prepare for your guests, tea or coffee?
Definitely tea. As I don’t have a coffee-maker or French press, I wouldn't want
to serve instant coffee, so I always heat up water in my kettle and serve some
tea, either in bags or fresh. Since I have quite a collection of different teas, I feel
prouder to share this with my guests.
