Step 1: Consult the chart above and measure the indicated amount of tea into your tea infuser.

Step 2: Heat the water to the temperature indicated on the chart and pour into the cup.

Step 3: Allow the tea to steep for the time indicated on the chart and then remove the tea infuser.

Tips:

  • Preheating the cup to a safe but warm temperature will keep the tea from cooling off too quickly.

  • Do not pack your tea infuser too tightly - more room for the tea to move within the infuser will allow for better flavor.
