- Steepings
1st Steeping:
Water temperature: 200 Fahrenheit
Time: 5 minutes
I take one bamboo tea bag and one lemongrass tea bag and put them both in my cup and adding the boiled water into my cup I leave it to steep for five minutes.
Tea’s color is the lightest brown to a golden honey color when steeped for longer and the aroma is of warmed grass on a sunny hot day; like when out in the fields knee deep in plants/weeds/herbs etc. and it is warm and the aroma is sweet and pungent of plant and herbs.
I sip my tea slowly while holding this image in my mind since here in Massachusetts it is a very cold and windy day and the herbal tea is warming me up and filling me with thoughts of spring.
2nd Steeping:
Water temperature: 190 Fahrenheit
Time: five minutes
I am able to enjoy this tea for the rest of the morning right into the middle of the afternoon when the flavor and aroma is so mild and faint that it becomes like I am simply drinking a glass of water that is mixed with something very faint.
In all, I have been able to enjoy the bamboo tea with not much literature to go with it. I am stating what it makes me feel like to drink it and it has been good.
