Cup Characteristics: Rich and creamy black
and green tea with grounding cinnamon.
Infusion: Bright coppery color
Ingredients: Luxury black tea, Luxury green tea,
plum bits (plum and rice flour), cinnamon,
and flavoring.
Hot tea brewing method: Bring freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil. Place 1 teaspoon
of tea for each cup into the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the teapot. Cover and let
steep for 3-7 minutes according to taste (the longer the steeping time the stronger the
tea). Even though milk and a dash of sugar help enhance the flavor character on this tea, it
is perfectly acceptable to consume this tea straight-up.
Iced tea brewing method: (to make 1 quart): Place 6 teaspoons of tea into a teapot or
heat resistant pitcher. Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep for 5
minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into your serving pitcher
straining the leaves. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten
to taste. [A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to double the strength of
hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water]. Please note that this
tea may tend to go cloudy or "milky" when poured over ice; a perfectly normal characteristic
of some high quality black teas and nothing to worry about!
