Having tried tea break, it may be repeated (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

iterated

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'be repeated' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'having tried tea break it' is the wordplay.
'tried tea' anagrams to 'ITERATED'.
But, I'm not sure how this is indicated.

'may' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for iterated that I've seen before include "Done over" , "Repeated or stated repeatedly" , "Said or did again" , "given repeat" , "Kept repeating" .)
