- Place 1 teaspoon of tea per 6 oz. cup in tea infuser
(for larger leaf, use a heaping teaspoon per cup).
The tea experts prefer 2.5 grams, or slightly less
than an ounce per 6 oz. of water.
- Bring filtered, fresh water to a boil. (soft
water is best)
- Warm the teapot or mug with boiling water and pour out.
(For green tea, just fill mug or teapot, wait a
minute, and add tea.)
- Place tea infuser inside mug or teapot, add boiling water and steep
proper time (see chart to the right).
- Remove infuser and you’re ready to enjoy!
Green Tea is best when brewed at a lower
temperature. Let the boiled water cool on the stove
for a minute or two, or pour a little cold
water in the teapot or kettle, or just fill
cold teapot or mug and add tea (no pre-heating).
