Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Begin by heating the water in a small saucepan or kettle. Bring it to a gentle boil and then remove it from the heat.

  2. If you are using a green tea bag, place it in your teacup. If you prefer loose green tea, spoon the desired amount into a tea infuser.

  3. Carefully pour the hot water over the tea bag or infuser, ensuring that the leaves are fully submerged.

  4. Allow the tea to steep for about 2-3 minutes for a mild flavor, or up to 5 minutes for a stronger taste. Feel free to experiment to find your perfect brew strength.

  5. Once the tea has reached your desired strength, remove the tea bag or infuser from the cup. If you used loose tea leaves, strain them out using a small sieve.

  6. If desired, sweeten your green tea with a touch of honey, add a splash of fresh lemon juice for a citrusy zing, or garnish with mint leaves for an aromatic twist.

  7. Give your tea a gentle stir to incorporate any additional ingredients, and then take a moment to savor the aroma before taking your first soothing sip.
