One thing that adds elegance
to the ritual of tea service is brewing tea in a glass teapot. When tea flowers
are placed inside a glass vessel, the unfurling of the leaves is visible as it
transforms pure water into a flavorful steep. If you want to enjoy preparing
tea in a unique and magical way, look for a loose leaf tea infuser teapot. Be
sure to also follow these steps and enjoy an exceptional cup of your favorite
blend.
- Choose Your Tea
Make the most of every cup
by choosing a blend of exquisite flavors. Black, green, white, herbal and
artisanal flowering teas all look beautiful when you brew them in a glass pot.
- Heat the Water
You’ll need a kettle or a
pan on the stove, heat the desired amount of water to the correct temperature
for the tea you chose. If you’re using black and herbal teas, boil for about
208 degrees Fahrenheit. With green and white teas, you’d require slightly
cooler water, closer to 175 degrees.
- Add the Tea
You can either measure the
correct amount of tea or place a tea flower directly into the pot.
- Steep and Keep Watch
All tea flavors have their
brewing time. For delicate green tea, brew for about two to three minutes to
avoid bitterness, while black teas will require three to five minutes for ideal
flavor. Herbal teas may take more than five minutes for the flavor to fully
infuse, and it will also never become bitter from over-steeping.
- Pour and Enjoy
Before pouring your tea into
your cup, make sure all the tea leaves have settled down. If you chose not to
use an infuser, you can also pour it through a strainer into your cup.
