1
Boil the Water
In a kettle, bring 2 cups of fresh, filtered water to a boil.
2
Steep the Tea
Once the water is boiling, remove it from the heat and let it cool for about 1-2 minutes to reach the ideal temperature for green tea (around 175°F to 185°F or 80°C to 85°C). Add 2 tsp of jasmine green tea leaves to a teapot or heat-resistant container.
3
Pour Water
Pour the hot water over the tea leaves in the teapot.
4
Steep
Let the tea steep for about 2-3 minutes, depending on how strong you prefer your tea. Do not steep for too long to avoid bitterness.
5
Strain the Tea
After steeping, strain the tea into cups to remove the leaves.

6
Sweeten to Taste
Add honey or sugar to the tea according to your preference, stirring gently to dissolve.
7
Garnish
If desired, add a slice of lemon and a few mint leaves to each cup for added flavor and presentation.
