6 simple steeping steps for loose leaf tea:
- Boil Water at 205 degrees.
- Scoop 1 tsp of leaves per 1 cup of water (250 ml) into an infuser.
- Put infuser in mug or tea pot and pour in boiling water.
- Steep for the specific time for the tea type. Typically teas steep for 3-5minutes.
- Remove the infuser from your mug and enjoy your tea. Don’t compost the steeped leaves from the infuser just yet! Since JusTea only uses whole leaf tea, you can save those leaves to re-steep a second delicious cup!
- To re-steep, follow the same stepsabove but double the steeping time
