Preparation tips
Black tea, Grapefruit, Lemon, Bergamot
100 gram bulk bag or box.
Strong black tea with tangy citrus flavors.
A cup of "Mademoiselle Samovar" will be the cornerstone of your breakfast. Its Assam black tea is the perfect morning ally. Powerful and full-bodied, it will give you the boost you need to start the day off right. Its citrus touch gives it the perfect balance between indulgence and freshness.
What is now called a "Russian taste" is a black tea (from China, India or blended) to which citrus essences have been added. This trend comes to us from the 19th century, during which black tea was enhanced with slices of orange, bergamot or lemon.
🌱 What is black tea?
Contrary to popular belief, black tea can be less rich in theine than green tea. Because it is not because it has more tannins (more bitter, thicker, more colored) that it will be more theinated than other colors of tea.
🍵 How to prepare your black tea properly
Black teas are less fragile than green or white teas, so they are prepared between 80 and 90°C.
A black tea will infuse for between 3 and 5 minutes. More, if you like your teas full-bodied. But be careful, the longer the infusion and the higher the water temperature, the more bitterness develops.
These instructions are important because they help preserve not only the taste of the tea, but also its health-giving properties.
❄️ Cold infusion
Put 10 to 20g of tea in 1L of cold or room temperature water. Divide into two disposable tea bags Le Jardin de Mademoiselle. Iced tea is not an exact science: the colder the water and the larger the container, the slower the tea will infuse. Taste after the first hour. If it does not have enough flavor, add 30 minutes. Taste every additional 30 minutes until its flavors are diffused into the water.
