Pour the batter into the prepared pan; bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the brownies are shiny and firm on top and begin to shrink from the sides of the pan. Cool for 10 minutes on a cake rack. Combine remaining 2 tablespoons creme de cassis and 1 tablespoon of the strained tea; brush over the top of the brownies. Cool completely. In a small saucepan over moderate heat, melt the preserves, stirring often to prevent burning. Strain and brush over the top of the brownies. In a small heavy saucepan over moderately high heat, bring the cream to a boil; remove from heat and stir in the remaining 2 teaspoons of the tea. Let steep for 5 minutes; strain through a very fine strainer and return to the saucepan.
