1
Boil the Water
In a pot, bring 4 cups of water to a rolling boil.
2
Steep the Tea Leaves
Once boiling, remove the pot from heat and add 2 tablespoons of oolong tea leaves. Cover the pot and let it steep for 5 minutes.
3
Strain the Tea
After steeping, strain the tea into a pitcher to remove the leaves. Allow the tea to cool to room temperature.

4
Add Sweetener
If desired, stir in 2 tablespoons of honey and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice into the cooled tea until fully dissolved.
5
Infuse with Mint
Add fresh mint leaves to the tea for additional flavor. Let the tea sit for an additional 10 minutes to infuse.

6
Prepare Bottles
Ensure your glass bottles or jars are clean and sterilized. You can do this by washing them with hot, soapy water and rinsing thoroughly.
7
Fill the Bottles
Pour the brewed tea into the prepared glass bottles or jars, leaving some space at the top.
8
Seal and Store
Seal the bottles tightly and refrigerate. The bottled oolong tea can be stored in the fridge for up to a week.
