How to get tea stains out of cups

In most cases, washing up liquid would suffice.

However, if you’re dealing with stubborn tea stains, you can follow these steps:

-Mix equal parts bicarbonate of soda and vinegar until you create a paste. Apply a thick layer of the paste onto the stained area.

-Let the paste sit on the cup or mug for about an hour.

-Take an old toothbrush and use it to scrub the stain and paste off the cup. If the paste gets too dry, you can sprinkle a bit of water on it.

-Once the tea stain has loosened, scrub the cup under cold, running water to rinse off the dirt and the bicarbonate of soda paste.
