I take the pages and make a very concentrated mix of instant black coffee (or whatever flavor coffee I want) then I lay out the paper on paper towels and paint the coffee onto the pages. then I let them dry in the sun or in a window with sunlight. Then once dry they have a nice aged look and smell of whatever blend I used. Then I stitch them in singlets to a cover. I made some killer pumpkin spiced coffee pages not long ago.

Tea does work but gives a much lighter color to the pages. I set mine on the papertowels to blot them so it doesnt saturate terrible and then I let them get half dry then press them under a heavy book to dry the rest of the way so they dont crinkle up. Its a lot of trial and error.
