Brewing Directions

How to Brew (Hot)

Put 1 tsp of Assam Tea into infuser, then place in tea cup. Add 8 oz of near-boiling water, and steep for 3-5 minutes.

Tip: "Near-boiling water" is water that has been brought to 212 degrees, then allowed to cool for a few seconds. (I know. It's very specific. If this makes brewing your tea stressful, please ignore it. Make your tea the way that makes you happy.)

Cold Brew

When you cold brew tea you get a lighter, refreshing flavor with less caffeine. Try it out and see if you like it.

You will need a glass jar or pitcher (size approximately 1.5 L/1.5 Qts). Use 1-2 teaspoons of leaves per 1.5 L/Qts of water.

• Choose a big glass jar or pitcher.
• Add 1-2 teaspoons of Assam Tea.
• You have a choice here: Either dump the loose tea in the jar/ pitcher OR use an infuser or fill-able tea bag for your tea. Either way is fine.
• Add lukewarm or cold water.
• Cover to protect from odors.
• Put in a fridge for at 5-12 hours.
• Enjoy within 24 hours.

Quick Iced Tea

Don't want to wait for your iced tea? Make it the old-fashioned way. Here's how--

• Boil water and let cool to approximately 203 degrees.
• Add 2-3 teaspoons Assam Tea directly to heat-safe jar, pitcher or tea pot. (Or use an infuser or fill-able tea bag for your tea. Either way is fine.)
• Add around 5 oz (150 ml) of hot water and let it brew for 5-10 minutes.
• Strain and pour the tea into glasses filled with ice cubes.
