While the hack received a lot of love online, not everyone is on board with the tea bags. Some users noted that they can release microplastics into their drink. One person commented: “I’ve been doing this for years,” while another chimed in: “Nice trick sir.” Some adopted a more critical attitude: “It is not environmentally friendly and, secondly, it is not good for your health,” said one of them. Another user warned: “Completely avoid tea bags bro. Studies show they release millions of microplastic particles.”
On the other hand, some tea enthusiasts had their own advice. “Never squeeze the bag! It makes the tea too bitter,” one suggested. Someone else added: “Best method: put the tea bag in first and then pour the water on top.”
