How To Make The Perfect Cup Of Green Tea
September 6, 2007 by Kimberly
Okay, if you have ever drank a cup of green tea and thought, “I have no idea what everyone sees in this!”, then you are likely not making your green tea correctly. Green tea is chocked full of antioxidants that eliminate free radicals that promote cancer. It is also great for dieting.
I drink green tea every single morning, now that I know how to make it.
I used to think green tea was bitter and tasted like I was licking the ground…Yuk! When I found out how to make it correctly, that totally changed my schema…It is delicious, and how rewarding that it is good for you too!
I thought I would make certain that you all know how to make the perfect cup of green tea.
Type: Beverage
Serve With: Nothing…It is perfect all by itself!
Prep Time: 12 min
Cook Time: 2-3 min
Yield: 1 pot
Instructions:
1. Choose a great green tea: I prefer loose leaf Jasmine Superior or Cactus Fig from Teaopia (at least get organically grown tea).
2. Boil your water: Once water is boiled, set your timer for 5 minutes. This should cool the water just enough so as not to burn the green tea leaves when you add the water.
3. Add water to green tea and ONLY steep for 2-3 minutes. If you steep for any longer, you will surely have bitter green tea. Not good!
4. After 2-3 minutes, remove tea leaves.
5. Pour into a beautiful teacup and Enjoy!
I certainly hope this opens up your world to green tea and improving your health and life, even if it is in just a tiny way! It is essential!
I hope you enjoyed today’s installment of Cooking With Kimberly. Until next time…
Eat (& Drink) Deliciously,
