cups of tea
Hot leaf infusions
A cup of tea is a serving of brewed tea, but the phrase not my cup of tea means something isn't to one's taste or liking: Horror movies aren't really my cup of tea.
The positive form just my cup of tea describes something that suits one perfectly.
The idiom reflects British tea culture, where personal preference in tea preparation matters greatly.
