Tea Ingredients

2 tsp Bai Mu Dan White Tea Leaves

1 cup Filtered Water

1 tsp Honey or Sugar (optional)

Brewing Instructions

1. Prepare the Water

Start by boiling the filtered water in a kettle. Aim for a temperature of about 175°F (80°C) as Bai Mu Dan is a delicate tea that should not be brewed with boiling water.

2. Measure the Tea Leaves

While the water is heating, measure out 2 teaspoons of Bai Mu Dan white tea leaves. Place them in a teapot or an infuser.

3. Pour Water over Tea Leaves

Once the water has reached the appropriate temperature, pour it carefully over the tea leaves in the teapot or infuser.

4. Steep the Tea

Allow the tea to steep for about 4-6 minutes. This will help to extract the delicate flavor and aroma of the Bai Mu Dan.

5. Strain and Serve

After the steeping time is complete, strain the tea into a cup. If desired, add honey or sugar to taste before enjoying.
