The two processes of making a pot or cup of tea and of coffee

I almost drink tea and coffee every day.

First both beverages have something in common, for example both use water.
Say if I want drink tea, first I take out my favorite tea leaves or tea bag and tea pot and cup.
then fill tea pot with water( filter water is better) and heat water until it boiled. One thing is very important is warm my cup first because this will make loose tea leaves taste much more aroma. Next put the loose tea leaves or tea bag into my cup and wait for water is boiled. while water is boiled I pour hot water into teapot and wait about 20-30 seconds to steep to my desired strength then drain the water and pour the tea into my cup. Now I can have my hot tea and do whatever I want to do or relaxing a bit.
As to how to making a coffee, personally I prefer ground coffee to instant coffee. First I put my favorite Kona coffee beans in grind machince then grind it. Next I boil the water just like making the tea, then put the filter over the coffee pot and put about 2 teaspoonful of ground coffee into filter and wait until water is boiled. When water is boiling I pour the hot water into the filter and let coffee drip into my coffee cup, meanwhile I'd add some half and half into the cup. That is !
