Method

Preparing the Tea

Boil the Water

In a kettle, bring 500 ml of filtered water to a rolling boil.

Measure the Tea

While the water is boiling, measure 2 teaspoons of Iron Buddha Oolong tea leaves.

Steep the Tea

Once the water has boiled, remove it from heat and let it cool for about 30 seconds to reach approximately 90-95°C (194-203°F). Place the tea leaves in a teapot or infuser and pour the hot water over them.

Steeping Time

Allow the tea to steep for 3-5 minutes, depending on your taste preference. The longer the steeping time, the stronger the flavor.

Serve the Tea

After steeping, strain the tea into cups. If desired, add honey and a slice of lemon for additional flavor.
