teas.co.uk · 5 min · Makes 1 cup
You'll need
- 1 tea bag of Twinings Pure Green Tea
- 200ml freshly boiled water, cooled to around 80C (check with a thermometer)
- A slice of lemon, to taste (optional)
Method
- Boil the kettle, then let the water rest to around 80C for the pure green tea; a thermometer will show it, or set the kettle to 80C.
- Put the pure green bag in your cup and add the water.
- Steep for 2 minutes, no longer, to keep it smooth.
- Lift the pure green bag out with no squeeze, and add lemon if you like it.
- Pure green tea without any additions is the best way to judge the quality of the leaf; try it without lemon on the first cup.
