How To Brew Green Teas
Other than the rare white tea, green tea is the least processed tea which is one of the reasons this tea has the smoothest flavor. Green tea is becoming more and more popular due to medical findings on the health benefits of drinking this tea. Green tea has a clearer flavor than black or oolong teas. Like the Chinese habit, green tea goes well after an oily meal as the tea absorbs the oily leaving your mouth fresh and clean. Little surprise that modern medical research has concluded that green tea contains flouride and helps to prevent bacteria from forming in your mouth.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS
Like oolong tea, green tea is more enjoyable when sipped in small, handleless cups as opposed to a western mug or tea cup.
Use a cooler water temperature (71-76ºC), or water that has just begun to produce small bubbles. Allow to brew for a brief 2 - 3 minutes undisturbed. Remember to place the lid on the pot to retain the heat of the water.
USING SUGAR, LEMON and MILK
Like oolong tea, it is forbidden to use sugar, lemon or milk to mix with pure green teas! Again, because of the smooth, delicate flavor of the tea it would be a pitty to adulterate the characteristics with such harsh additives.Where there are rules, there are exceptions to those rules! We do recognize the fact that Moroccan Mint is traditionally served with sugar. We do not recommend adding flavoring agents to pure green teas however.
