Our Minty Green Chai is good straight up or with warm milk and sugar. We highly recommend brewing your tea in a teapot or mug with a removable infuser so that you can remove the leaves at the end of the steeping time. Whole leaf teas of this quality need room to unfurl and expand in the water in order to perform their "magic." However, leaving the tea leaves in the water will result in an over-infused, bitter tea. If you want a stronger cup of tea increase the amount of leaf rather than the steeping time. If you don't have a removable infuser, you can brew the loose leaves directly in the pot. At the end of the steeping time, strain all of the tea into a warm serving pitcher or pot. We suggest that you experiment with time and quantity of leaves to find your personal taste preferences.
