Contrary to popular belief, diluting tea with unboiled water is not at all dangerous.
We explain why you shouldn’t be afraid to add raw water to your tea.
Can you add raw water to tea?
As ntv.ru reports, adding unboiled water to tea does not pose any danger.
However, the prejudice against this habit did not arise out of nowhere.
It comes from the times when people took drinking water from reservoirs and wells.
And even tap water in the old days could be unsafe.
Therefore, it was strictly forbidden to mix unboiled water with boiled water or add it to drinks.
Nowadays, in most large cities, the water treatment system is well established, and there are no dangerous microbes in tap water, notes ntv.ru.
