How to Obtain Clay
Clay is a versatile resource in OSRS that can be obtained through various means:

- Buying: Players can purchase clay from other players or from certain shops, like the Varrock West mine.

Once you have obtained clay, you can proceed to craft your pot of tea.
Crafting the Pot of Tea (Clay)
To create a Pot of tea (clay), follow these steps:
- Make sure you have at least one piece of clay in your inventory.
- Find a pottery wheel. These are commonly located in guilds and pottery shops.
- Use the clay on the pottery wheel to craft a ‘clay pot.’
- Next, you will need a kettle and some tea leaves.
- Fill the clay pot with water and heat it using the kettle.
- Add the tea leaves to the hot water to create the pot of tea.
This process requires a minimum cooking level of 1 and will grant you experience points in the cooking skill.
Usage and Benefits
The Pot of tea (clay) serves as a consumable item that provides energy restoration:
- Energy Restoration: Each pot restores 2% of your energy upon consumption.
- Quest Requirements: Certain quests may require players to have or use a pot of tea.
