Pour on approximately 150 ml hot water, just off the boil, per cup of tea.

Cover and steep for 10 minutes (longer is fine e.g. overnight).

Pour through a strainer into your chosen drinking receptacle.

Add a twist of lemon or lime, or a dab of natural sweetener like honey or agauave, if you like.

Enjoy your tea hot, warm or over ice.

Drink 3-4 cups daily.
