Green Tea with Blueberries

Properly steeped milk oolong flavored with blueberries, lemon and mint - a rich green tea with a berry note.
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 7 minutes
Total Time 12 minutes
Servings: 2 servings
Course: Drinks
Cuisine: Home cooking

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tsp milk oolong tea rolled leaves
  • 300-400 ml hot water not boiling, 60-80 °C
  • 1 wedge lemon
  • 1 tbsp blueberries
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 3 mint leaves

Method
 

  1. Put the tea leaves into the teapot, pour over a little hot (not boiling) water and drain it right away - always rinse the first steep.
  2. Pour hot (not boiling) water over the tea and let it steep for 5-7 minutes.
  3. You'll see fermentation on the leaves: crimson patches and edges are a sign of a proper oolong.
  4. Put sugar, lemon, mint and blueberries into a serving cup.
  5. Pour in the steeped oolong, stir to dissolve the sugar, and serve.

Notes

Oolongs are steeped at 60-80 °C. The same tea can be steeped many times - each time it reveals itself differently.
