Organic Oolong Tea-Small Batch-Made in the USA-Contains Caffeine

It contains polyphenols, such as theaflavins and EGCG, which fight free radicals and reduce bad cholesterol. Dark oolong, often fermented longer, provides a smooth, nutty, and sometimes smoky flavor profile.
 
Naturally sweet and succulent offering a midway point between the deepness of black tea and the natural lightness of green tea. 
 
Ingredients: Organic Dark Oolong tea.  Contains Medium Caffeine.
 
Hot Tea:
Brew tea at 185º - Use 1-2 tsp. leaf per 8 oz. water. Allow boiling water to cool slightly, then pour over leaves. Steep 2-3 minutes.
 
Iced Tea:
Prepare the loose tea: Use 1 teaspoon of loose leaf tea per 1 cup of water. For example, if you're making 8 cups of tea, then steep eight 8 teaspoons of loose tea leaves in 8 cups of hot water. Add an additional 1-2 teaspoons of tea leaves for a stronger, bolder flavor, or if using a delicately-flavored tea.
*Gallon: use 2 oz of loose leaf tea (roughly 1-1 1/2 cups depending on leaf size)
Once the hot water is ready, pour it over the tea leaves and steep for the blend's recommended period of time. 
To sweeten, add 1/4 cup of sugar or honey per 1 gallon of tea and adjust to taste. Be sure to add the sweetener while the tea is still hot and stir well until fully dissolved. 
Once steeped, pour the hot tea concentrate into a serving pitcher and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or let cool to room temperature and serve over extra ice. 
 
Mason Jar Iced Tea:
Fill a mason jar with hot water.  Steep 2-4 tsp for 7 minutes. Place it in the refrigerator until cold
Optional: Stir in sugar or honey while the tea is still warm so it dissolves easily
