Brewing Blooming Tea The Right Way

Most tea drinkers are content to just drop a tea bag in hot water

, let it steep until they remember that they're supposed to take it out and then drink their concoction. Where's the joy in that, I wonder? Tea drinking is supposed to be about the old age ritual and observing the right way to brew to get the best cup of tea as well as just having a good cup.

A great cup of tea starts with the utensils used, making sure that all of the items you'll be using are in good and clean condition. Everything from the kettle, glass teapot if brewing blooming tea, cups, and strainers must be lightly and frequently washed with soap or baking soda (to keep the stain away). It also keeps mineral residue from accumulating which can influence the flavor of the tea.

Next item on the list that can greatly influence the taste and flavor of a freshly brewed cup of tea is the water. Good tasting water will yield a great brew as well. So to ensure you get this result, use bottled or filtered water that does not contain any chemicals or chlorine. Distilled water is not recommended for that great tasting concoction.

It is recommended to heat about six ounces of water for a cup of tea. When making a pot of flowering tea however, it is suggested to know the exact amount of water is required to cover up the entire tea ball with sufficient space to have the tea ball unfold completely inside. The required heat and the exact time for steeping for each tea varies, it depends on the variety of tea and how it was prepared. Refer to any instruction you may have on tea for a great result or use this as a general rule:

*Steeping for quality black tea - 2 minutes

*Five min. steeping for mixture of black and green tea

*7 minutes steeping for green tea

*Blooming tea - as long as it takes to blossom!

To have a great tasting second cup, Make sure to take out the infuser after the required time, so the tea doesn't brew any longer.
