How to Brew the Perfect Tetley Green Tea
Green tea has a delicate flavour that needs gentle care. Here’s your quick, no-fuss guide to brewing it just right so it stays smooth and never turns bitter.
Brewing Steps
01
Heat Water (80°C)
Bring freshly drawn water to a boil, then let it cool for about two minutes until it reaches around 80°C. Pouring boiling water directly onto green tea can make it taste bitter.
02
Steep 2–3 Minutes
Place one Tetley Green Tea bag into your cup, pour over the hot water, and let it steep for two to three minutes.
03
Customise to Taste
Enjoy it as is for a pure green tea experience, or add a slice of lemon or a drizzle of honey if you prefer a touch of sweetness.
