Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 2 tbsp Gunpowder green tea (whole leaf)
- 1 kettle Hot water ((as you will need to rinse your tea and you can get several steeps from this tea))
- 1/2 cup spearmint leaves (fresh (washed and roughly torn))
Instruction
- Place your gunpowder green tea into your tea pot with built in strainer. Pour enough hot water over your tea leaves to cover. Leave it set for a moment to rinse and allow the tea leaves to open. Discard this tea water. Repeat the process again.
- Place the slightly torn spearmint leaves in your tea pot on top of the rinsed gunpowder green tea. Pour your hot water over the tea and steep for 2.5 minutes and pour to serving cups. (if you must have your tea sweet, then at this point in time you would add your sugar to taste, then mix by pouring high from one tea pot to another – about 5 times to mix well)
- Garnish with additional mint leaves, if desired.
- Enjoy!
