Alright, goldfish fam! Ready to dive into the magical world of Jin Jun Mei tea? ππ This fancy black tea from China packs a delightful punch, and making it is as easy as scrolling through TikTok. Letβs get brewing!
Step 1: Gather Your Supplies π
Before you start, grab these essentials:
– Jin Jun Mei tea leaves (duh!) π
– Filtered water (we don’t do tap water, okay? π«π¦)
– A kettle (or a fancy electric one if you’re living in 3023) β‘
– A teapot or an infuser (whatever vibes with you!) π΅
Step 2: Boil the Water π₯
Get your kettle on the stove and bring that filtered water to a boil. It should be around 90-95Β°C (if youβre into the whole Celsius thing, otherwise that’s around 194-203Β°F for the Fahrenheit fans).
Step 3: Measure the Leaves π
Youβll want about 1 tablespoon of Jin Jun Mei leaves for every 250ml (thatβs like a cup) of water. More leaves, more flavor – but donβt go crazy! Weβre not trying to start a tea rebellion.
Step 4: Steep It Up β³
Once your waterβs boiled, let it cool down for about 30 secondsβyou want it hot, but not scalding, unless you enjoy being a human fire-breathing dragon. π Place your leaves in the teapot or infuser and pour the hot water over them. Let it steep for 3-5 minutes, depending on how bold you like it.
Step 5: Enjoy! π΅β¨
Time to sip on that warm, fragrant goodness! You can drink it straight or add some honey if you need a little sweetness in your life. Just be careful not to spill it on your phone while you try to Snapchat your tea pic. π πΈ
Pro Tips: π
- Donβt ditch the leaves after one steep! Jin Jun Mei can be steeped multiple times (2-3 times) for different flavor profiles.
- Store your tea leaves in an airtight container so they donβt go staleβnobody wants old tea! π«
And thatβs all, folks! Youβre now ready to impress your friends with your Jin Jun Mei prowess. π€
TL;DR:
- Gather supplies (Jin Jun Mei, water, kettle, teapot) π
