How do you brew a blooming tea?
- Put 1 blooming tea into a medium (400ml) to large teapot (800ml). Glass is best so you can see it unfurl
- Boil kettle to 90°C degree water temperature (if you do not have a temperature controlled kettle just take the water to boiling temperature and then let it cool for 5 minutes)
- Pour water slowly over the blooming tea and allow 3-4 minutes for the blooming tea to unfurl
- Pour the infused tea into a teacup and enjoy!

Yes, it has a small amount. This is because the outside leaves are made from the tea plant (Camellia Sinensis) which inherently has contain.

Once the blooming tea has been unfurled in water it cannot re-bloom. However, the ingredients are high quality botanicals and so adding water again will still extract some flavour. The flavour will be more mild but still pleasant.
