gunpowder green tea follow these instructions.:
- In a teapot, combine two teaspoons of tea-leaf with half a litre of boiled water. Allow it to steep for ten to fifteen minutes.
- Without stirring, filter the mixture into a stainless steel pot, so that the tea leaves and coarse powder are removed.
- Add 5 teaspoons of sugar.
- Bring back up to boil over a medium heat. This important step in the preparation process allows the sugar to undergo hydrolysis, giving the tea its distinctive taste.
- Pour over fresh mint leaves crushed in the glass.
Bring filtered or spring water to 170°F. Add 1 tsp of tea leaves to an 8oz cup. Pour boiling water over the tea leaves and let steep 3 minutes.
