• Bring filtered or freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil.
• Place 1 slightly heaping teaspoon of loose tea for each 7-9oz / 200-260ml of fluid volume in your teapot.
• Pour the boiling water into the teapot.
• Cover and let steep for 3-7 minutes according to taste (the longer the steeping time the stronger the tea).

Iced Tea Brewing Method (Pitcher - to make 1 liter/quart):

• Pour the tea into your serving pitcher straining the tea or removing the tea bags.
• Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste.
• A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to increase the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water. (Note: Some luxury quality teas may turn cloudy when poured over ice. This is a sign of luxury quality and nothing to worry about.)
