Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Cold water
• Infusing ball
• Tea kettle/pot

How to Use an Infusing Ball to Brew Tea

1. The best tea you ever tasted starts with clean, cold water. Fill your kettle with cold water, either from the tap or from a filtered water source. Bring the water to a boil.

2. While the kettle is heating the water, fill your infusing ball with fresh, loose tea. You don't need to pack the ball with tea leaves; for a single up of tea you can fill it halfway. Place the infuser in the cup.

3. Allow the kettle to come to a complete, roiling boil. Being careful not to burn yourself on the water or steam from the water, pour it into your tea cup, over the infuser.

4. Steep the tea. Leave the infuser in for at least 3 minutes to allow the tea to develop flavor. If you like a strong cup of tea, leave the infuser in for 5 minutes. Remove it when you are ready to drink.

Tips & Warnings

• Sometimes finely ground tea can escape the infuser and leaves will be floating in your tea. You can either remove them with a spoon, or ignore them. Bit of loose tea in your cup is no different than getting a few coffee grounds in your coffee.
• Tea left to steep too long will be bitter and unpleasant. Tea that isn't steeped long enough will be weak.
