For the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cupcake pan with 12 liners. Heat the milk in the microwave for 1 minute, stir and then add 30 more seconds. Place the tea bags in the milk and allow steeping for 5 minutes. Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt. In the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, mix the granulated sugar, oil, vanilla and the eggs, 1 at a time.

Slowly alternate adding the confectioners' sugar and 1/2 cup reserved tea until you reach the desired frosting consistency. Frost the cooled cupcakes and serve.
