## Summary

A clean, light cup of green tea and peppermint, brewed gently at 80C so the green leaf and mint stay smooth, not harsh.

## Description

Cotterley pairs green tea with peppermint, so it brews like a green tea: keep the water off the boil at around 80C, or the green leaf turns bitter and the mint goes harsh. Three minutes is enough for a clean, light cup with a cool mint finish.
