How to Brew Ceylon Tea

Use 1 level teaspoon per 6 oz. water. Heat water to boiling. Steep for 2 to 4 minutes. For best taste, do not over steep. These leaves can also handle a second or even third infusion.

We recommend preparing Ceylon using a teapot, tea infuser, or tea filter. These brewing methods give the tea leaves enough room to expand as the tea steeps, resulting in a richer, more flavorful cup.Ceylon can be enjoyed on its own for a brisk, refreshing cup, and also goes well with a splash of milk and sweetener or as a base for atea latte.
