Oolong tea, derived from the partially fermented leaves of the Camellia Sinensis plant, offers a rich and aromatic experience. Known for its complex flavor that bridges green and black tea, Oolong tea features floral and fruity notes with a smooth finish. Naturally caffeinated, it provides a gentle energy boost, making it a versatile choice for any time of the day.
Step 1: Pour 8 fl oz of hot water over 1 tsp of Oolong tea.
Step 2: Let steep for 2-3 minutes, strain, and enjoy.
A cup of Oolong tea is generally brewed within the following guidelines. For one cup of tea, use 1 level teaspoon or 2 grams per 8 fl oz. For a stronger brew, use more tea, do not increase brew time as this will increase bitterness. For those who like their tea strong, you can double the amount of Oolong tea used to 2 tsp or 4 grams per 8 fl oz.
