The 3 Must-Knows.

Every cup of tea will be best when you watch these 3 things:

  1. Amount of tea
  2. Water temperature
  3. Steep time

If you want to keep things super simple, start with 1 tbsp. of tea leaves. Boil water, then wait 1-2 minutes for it to cool. Steep green tea for 2-3 minutes, black tea 3-5 minutes, and herbal tea 5-7 minutes.

Take your time. Enjoy the ritual.
