• 【How to Make Delicious Tea】■ Boil water thoroughly. Once boiled, pour the hot water into a teacup or similar to cool it down. ■ For 1-3 people, put about 10g of tea leaves into a teapot. ■ Pour the cooled hot water (about 60-70℃ is ideal) into the teapot. Slightly hotter temperatures are also acceptable. ■ Wait for about 30 seconds and then pour evenly into teacups. Pouring every last drop is the secret to making the second brew delicious.
