How to brew:
Use 170-180° F water to brew this tea. Pour a little amount of hot water into the teapot and the tea cups, let them stand and warm up for a few seconds and then pour out the water. Take 2 teaspoons (or as personally preferred) for each 8 oz (200 ml) of the tea, put the tea leaves into the teapot and pour in the desired amount of water. Let it steep for 2 minutes and enjoy your Silver Needle Yellow tea!
P.S. Increase the steeping time for subsequent brewings.
