HOW TO BREW GREEN TEA:
- Start with fresh, filtered, cold water; avoid re-boiling as it loses oxygen.
- Heat water in a kettle, but let it cool for a few minutes after boiling (to around 175-185°F / 80-85°C) to prevent scorching delicate leaves.
- Use about 1 teaspoon (2-3g) of loose leaf tea for every 6-8 ounces (200ml) of water, or follow package instructions.
- Place tea in a pot, pour the hot (not boiling) water over it, rinse the leaves, pour out the water and pour in the fresh, cover, and steep for 1-3 minutes ; longer steeping brings out more bitterness.
- You can make up to five infusions from these leaves.
