How to brew:
Add 1 level TSP of Stillroom Green Tea to a Stillroom Stainless Tea Infuser in a large mug - add boiling water & steep 1 - 2 minutes - briefly steep -- as over-steeping can result in a bitter taste, so be mindful of the steeping time. You can experiment with the steeping time to find the perfect flavor and strength to suit your taste buds & doing a second steep is a great idea too. Because of the low steeping time, it’s actually possible to get between three and five more steeps out of the leaves.
