Remove the pyramid bag from your cup.

How to Make Loose-Leaf Tea
If you choose loose-leaf tea, you'll need a tea infuser of sorts. These may come inside your teapot, or you can buy a single-serving tea infuser to pop inside a single cup.
Fill the infuser with the amount of tea specified on the package for how many servings you need.
Bring fresh, cold water to a rolling boil.
Once boiling, pour over the tea infuser (or lower the infuser into the pot) and steep according to the timing above based on your tea variety.
Remove the tea infuser from the cup or pot.
If needed, finish with milk, your preferred sweetener, or a slice of citrus.
