Preparation
Use 1 teaspoon of tea, approximately 2g, for a 2 dl teacup. Pour boiling water at 100°C over the tea and steep for 3 minutes. After steeping, strain the tea.
The tea can be infused up to three times. For the second and third infusion, keep the correct water temperature and extend the steeping time. Proper water temperature and steeping time are important, as oversteeping can make the tea taste more bitter.
