Japanese Homemade Black Tea
While Japan is more commonly associated with green tea, black tea is also enjoyed in the country.
Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon loose black tea leaves (Assam, Darjeeling, or your preferred variety)
- 2 cups water
- Sugar or honey (optional, for sweetening)
- Lemon slices (optional, for flavor)
Instructions:
- Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a pot or kettle.
- Once the water reaches a rolling boil, remove it from heat and let it cool for about 1 minute.
- Add the black tea leaves to a teapot or a heat-resistant container.
- Pour the hot water over the tea leaves, ensuring they are fully submerged.
- Cover the teapot or container and let the tea steep for about 3-5 minutes, depending on your desired strength. Adjust the steeping time to your preference.
- After the desired steeping time, strain the tea to separate the leaves from the liquid. You can use a tea strainer or fine-mesh sieve.
- If desired, add sugar or honey to sweeten the tea. Stir well until the sweetener dissolves.
- Serve the Japanese-style black tea hot in teacups or mugs.
- Optionally, garnish the tea with a slice of lemon for added flavor.
- Enjoy your homemade Japanese-style black tea!
Note: Feel free to adjust the amount of tea leaves and steeping time to suit your taste preferences. Some people prefer a stronger tea by increasing the amount of tea leaves or steeping for a longer period. Similarly, you can decrease the strength by using fewer tea leaves or shortening the steeping time. Experiment to find the balance that suits your taste.
