How to use loose leaf tea
Place tea leaves in a teapot, infuser basket, or empty tea bag
Pour hot water over the tea (rather than dunking tea leaves into the water)
Strain or remove leaves before enjoying
If you need help getting started with loose leaf tea, read our article here. We also sell easy-to-use infusers and fillable tea bags — shop here.
Brewing Guidelines
Heat 8 oz of filtered water to a boil. Pour water over 1.5g (about 2 tsp) tea leaves in a teapot or a strainer set in a cup. Steep for 3 – 4 minutes.
If you prefer your tea stronger, we suggest using more tea rather than increasing the amount of time; longer steep times may impact the flavor of the tea.
If serving over ice, use more tea when brewing to avoid diluting the tea too much as it cools.
Always use filtered or spring water to fully enjoy the taste of your tea. For best results, brew using a teapot with a removable filter that allows the leaves to unfurl completely. Avoid tea balls/eggs or other infusers that compress the tea leaves.
Cold Brew
Jersey Fresh Mint is extra refreshing when served cold. Rather than steeping a strong cup of tea with hot water, we recommend making this as a cold brew to avoid any bitterness. Add 32 oz (4 cups) of cool, filtered or spring water to 6 – 8 grams of tea and let it infuse for at least 4 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
Storing Tea
Keep sealed in a cool, dry place away from strong odors, moisture, and light. We do not recommend storing tea in clear containers (such as glass jars) as light can affect the shelf life of tea.
Herbal tea should be consumed within 1 - 2 years of purchase for optimal flavor.
