Hot Brewing Method
Teaware: Use a 110ml white porcelain gaiwan or glass teapot to observe the tea soup color changes. Avoid metal utensils that may affect the flavor.
Water Temperature: Use 85-90°C for core origin teas (such as Tongmu Pass). Outer mountain teas can be brewed at 95°C. Let boiling water rest for 1-2 minutes to cool down and prevent scalding tender buds.
Tea-to-Water Ratio: 1:20 (3g tea + 60ml water), adjustable to 1:30 based on personal taste.
Brewing Steps:
- Rinse the teaware with boiling water to increase temperature and enhance tea aroma.
- Quickly rinse the tea with 90°C water for 3 seconds to remove impurities.
- Pour water to 70% full. For the first four infusions, brew immediately. Starting from the fifth infusion, extend brewing time by 3-5 seconds each. Jin Jun Mei can be reinfused 6-8 times or more.
Cold Brewing Method
Container: Use a 500ml sealed glass jar with 5g of tea leaves and room temperature water, refrigerate for 6-8 hours.
Flavor Profile: Cold-brewed tea is refreshingly sweet and mellow with reduced bitter substances, making it perfect for summer refreshment.
Flavor Customization: Enhance with lemon slices, honey, or mint leaves for an iced tea experience.
Creative Serving Ideas
Jin Jun Mei Latte: Mix hot brewed tea with hot milk in a 1:1 ratio. Add caramel or vanilla syrup, and pair with cheese cake. For a cold version, add ice to make an iced latte.
