Yup, 70-80s in the microwave, add the tea bag, cover the cup, then wait a few minutes for it to steep. Likewise for hot chocolate, but cut to 70s to not scald the milk.
I did this for years before we got a kettle, and now I use the kettle more for general water heating than tea (we don’t drink much tea).
Still not as weird as microwaving tea.
Don’t people microwave the water, not the tea?
