Java tea comes from a tropical plant whose taste reminds us of the well-known green tea.
Java is a variety of tea with a light, mild and woody taste, soft, earthy smell with a dark distillate color. Soak it for 2-3 minutes in warm water and enjoy its subtle taste.
To enjoy a Java tea, it is ideal to preheat the mug we are going to use by pouring hot water over it. Then, heat water (95-100 degrees) and fill the mug. Put 1/2 tbsp. tea mixture in the filter or in a beverage bag into the mug of hot water and remains in it for 3-4 minutes.
Always use fresh water and not water that has been left in the teapot or kettle for hours.
Do not leave the tea bag in the mug while you are drinking it as it will greatly alter its taste.
If it stays in the water too long it will become heavy and bitter.
Optionally, add your favorite sweetener.
After making it, place it in the fridge to enjoy it cold if you wish.
