So how do I use Tava Tea Wellness Blend?
It couldn’t be simpler. Make the tea and drink it daily! Just follow these simple instructions:
Overall:
- 4g of tea per teabag
- 30 teabags in a box
- Each teabag can be used 2 times (at least)
Ingredients per teabag:
- 40% Organic Steamed Sencha
- 30% Organic Wuyi Cliff Oolong
- 30% Organic Pu-erh
Steeping instructions:
- Pour 600-700ml (3-4 cups) of fresh boiled water into a teapot.
- Wait until the water is cooled to about 75-80 degrees Celsius.
- Let the tea steep for 2-3 minutes for the first infusion. The colour of the tea should be warm golden brownish. You’re now ready to drink your tea.
- Don’t throw away the teabag, you’ve only used it once, and you have not released all the flavors and healthy anti-oxidants yet! Make sure that the teabag is not kept in water, as the leafs will continue to release its flavors, which we don’t want until the second steeping.
- For the second infusion, boil 500-600ml (2-3 cups) of water and pour this into a teapot.
- Again, wait for the water to be cooled to about 75-80 degrees celcius.
- Let the tea steep for 3-5 minutes for the second infusion. The colour will be about the same as the first infusion, maybe a little bit lighter. This second steeping releases different tea oils and anti-oxidants , leading to a different taste of the tea. You’re now ready for your second tea session.
Tips:
If you want, you can even make a third and forth pot of tea. Again take 500-600 ml of fresh boiled water and let the tea steep for about 6-8 minutes. If you want more infusions with the same teabag, feel free to experiment; tea is a fascinating product with many different flavors!
When you find the tea to be to watery, increase the steeping time of the infusion or reduce the steeping time for the previous infusions.
You can also use less water for the individual infusions. Keep in mind that the steeping time per infusion also will have to vary. This can be as short as 30-60 seconds when you use 150-200 ml of water (1 cup). Slightly increase the steeping time with 30-60 seconds per infusion. You can let the tea steep for as long as you desire. There are famous Japanese tea rituals that have 12(!) steeping rounds, where the 12th round has a 20-25 minute steeping time!!
With 30 bags in a months supply, good for at least 60 full pots of tea!
