Ok honest question. Do Brits only let the tea soak for like 2-5 minutes? I always let it soak for longer, like 15 minutes otherwise I think it just doesn't taste as good.

Edit: I probably should have clarified that, when I say 15 minutes, I was thinking about teabags. I only use teabags for stuff like lavender tea etc. Also I would never let black tea soak for 15 minutes, I've accidentally been there. Can't recommend it.

I think the issue is not the fact that it's a teabag, it's the lavender part. If you're having fancy tea then you leave it in much longer, if you're having normal tea then 15 minutes is as heretical as the OP!
