Tried tea freshly brewed, then did so again? (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

iterated

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

'did so again?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'tried tea freshly brewed' is the wordplay.
'freshly brewed' indicates anagramming the letters (letters in a fresh order).
'tried'+'tea'='triedtea'
'triedtea' anagrammed gives 'ITERATED'.

'then' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

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