The Standard Cup (Tropical Sun Ginseng)

teas.co.uk · 7 min · Makes 1 mug

You'll need

• 1 tea bag of Tropical Sun Ginseng
• 250ml freshly boiled water (100C)
• Honey, to taste
• A slice of lemon, optional

Method

1. Pop the ginseng bag in your favourite mug.
2. Pour over the freshly boiled water and leave to steep for 5 minutes so the earthy root opens up.
3. Lift out the bag without squeezing it, to keep the bitterness gentle.
4. Stir in a little honey to balance the earthiness, and add a slice of lemon if you like.
5. Sip slowly and enjoy the warming, earthy cup.
6. Give it the full 5 minutes; a short brew tastes thin and medicinal, while the full steep rounds the bitterness.
