Brewing Guide
Herbal Tisanes
4 - 6 minutes at 100°C
Black Tea
3 - 5 minutes at 100°C
Green Tea
3 - 5 minutes at 80°C
Oolong Tea
3 - 5 minutes at 90°C
Tea Tip: If you dont have a whizz-bang kettle with a variable temperature setting, boil the water until completion (100°C) and let it sit in the kettle with the lid open for a few minutes. This will bring the temperature down to avoid burning green or oolong tea and turning it bitter.

About Jodie (Head Blender)
Hello! I'm Jodie - the blender behind The Tea Crowd. I love getting in the kitchen and playing around with natural and organic tea leaves, fruits and herbs until a delicious blend is created.
I started The Tea Crowd in 2017 to find alternatives to coffee, sweetened beverages and alcohol after being diagnosed with endometriosis and IBS while also being gluten intolerant and sensitive to dairy. Being a tea lover from way back, I found that some existing tea brands were triggering my symptoms due to the extra additives and flavourings and poor quality ingredients.
I wanted a tea I could drink all day that tasted good as well as having amazing natural health benefits. I'm proud to produce quality, small batch teas with no hidden additives or flavourings - only the good stuff. What you see in your cup is what you get in your tea... tea as it should be!
The tea is hand blended and packaged in small batches for maximum freshness in Perth, Western Australia.
Good tea brings people together so pop the kettle on, grab a cup and settle in for your own little 'tea crowd' of one... or two.. or more... with refills, of course!
Happy brewing!
Jodie
