What are the benefits of loose leaf tea?
Loose leaf tea typically offers a fresher, more complex flavour. It also contains more antioxidants and essential oils than pre-bagged tea, and the leaves can be reused for multiple infusions. -
How do you brew loose leaf tea?
To brew loose leaf tea, measure 1-2 teaspoons of tea per cup, add hot water (temperature varies by tea type), and steep for 2-5 minutes depending on the tea. Use a JING tea-iere, tea infuser or strain the leaves afterward. -
