I’m brewing a famous oolong tea called Tie Guan Yin (goddess of mercy). And I need to get out the door in a hurry. Brewing tea Grandpa style is my go-to when I’m on the move.
It’s simple — no strainer, no fuss. Just tea, hot water, and a good cup.

You want to use teas that open up into full leaves or clusters on a stem, like a nice Taiwanese oolong. Big leaves are perfect — they gently soak up the water, sink to the bottom, and you can just sip from the top. As you go, top it up with more hot water or a little more tea if you want a stronger flavour.

You will skip watching the beautiful leaves unfurling when you’re rushing around — unless you’re using a glass cup — but that’s okay. You still get to enjoy a smooth, full-bodied tea that tastes far better than anything you’ll find at a café. Here are some some great teas to brew Grandpa style:
•Tie Guan yin Oolong
•Jasmine Pearls Green tea
•RouGui Oolong
•Keemun Mao Feng Black tea
Any whole tea leaves either rolled ball style or wire like shape style works.
Do you have any questions? Please, just ask!

Matcha pairs well with watermelon. Here is how you can make an Iced Watermelon Matcha at home. Ingredients:
-1 cup of frozen watermelon pieces
-ice cubes to fill a 500ml glass (16oz)
-1 teaspoon (2g) of good quality Matcha
-1/2 cup of warm water (about 60 degrees C)

Instructions:
1-Blend the frozen watermelon pieces until it turns to a slush. Set aside.

2-Sift the Matcha powder into a bowl and add 1/3 cup of warm water. Whisk briskly for 15 seconds until you get a nice foam forming at the top then add the remaining of the warm water and whisk for an additional 10 seconds.

3-Pour the watermelon slush first into your 16oz glass. Add 8 ice cubes and pour over your 1/2 cup of whisked Matcha. The natural sweetness of the watermelon is perfect for this blend but you can sweeten it to your taste with your sweetener of choice.
Prep time: 5 minutes. Looks amazing and tastes great. Give it a try.

How to know you are buying a good quality matcha? There isn't any regulations about the quality grading of matcha so here are a few tips to help you when shopping for matcha. You might have seen 3 different gradings:  CULINARY Matcha, PREMIUM Matcha and CEREMONIAL Matcha. The main differences is taste, texture, colour and when and how it is harvested and made. The lowest quality is CULINARY matcha.  CULINARY grade has a coarser texture and will not dissolve as well in water like other higher grades. It has a stronger taste with more intense grassy notes. Perfect for cooking and baking and with a lower price tag. 

When it comes to CEREMONIAL and PREMIUM matchas, I've tasted many of both grades and found the taste to vary from year to year and from farm to farm.  I've heard CEREMONIAL is sweeter yet I've tasted PREMIUM grade sweeter than a CEREMONIAL grade. So CEREMONIAL grade labelling is often a term interchangeably used with PREMIUM. The good news is all grades have high amounts of health benefits and the way it's produced will mostly be responsible for its wonderful flavours.

What to do with your tea bags?
Compost bin?
Let me explain:
Tea bags were design for convenience and not for taste. If you are a tea lover and are looking for a tea drinking experience that will wow you, whole loose leaf and pressed tea (post fermented tea cakes and bricks) are it.

Overnight cold brew is my favorite cold brewing method especially for Green teas or lightly oxidized Oolongs, like a Tie Guan Yin Oolong. But if I am last minute and need a quick iced tea fix, brewing a tea in the conventional way and then flash chilling it works great too. If you like a tart thirst quenching drink try Hibiscus and Mint blend. Done in 5 minutes.
🍃

🍃

Make it at home recipe:
•Use 5g of Hibiscus Mint herbal tea
and brew in 1/2cup hot water
for 3 minutes.
•Pour your brewed herbal tea over 6-7 ice cubes in a martini shaker and flash chill shaking 20 times.
•Pour in a large glass(16oz) and top up with cold water.
*Sweeten to taste but not necessary. If you like tartness, drink it as is.
