How to Brew Oolong Tea
Brewing TipsSo good to see you! Sit down, we're just about to make some tea.
Oolong teas often take a slight bit of additional care when brewing to ensure their gentler flavors aren’t left by the wayside due to too hot (or long) of a steep. Let's try!
Bring sixteen ounces of water to 190 °F, or just below boiling.
Measure two teaspoons of loose tea into a tea bag, teapot, or infuser, and set it aside.
Once your water has heated, immerse your tea leaves in water and steep them for roughly one minute, adjusting to taste.
A slightly (~30 seconds) longer steep won’t burn your tea, though exercise caution when steeping beyond one and a half minutes.
Discard your used tea leaves, add any sweeteners you'd like, and enjoy!
