Lychee Oolong Tea - Complete Oriental Sweetness
Summer marks the peak season of intensely fragrant lychees. Lychee possesses a piercing sweetness which, when combined with a deep-aftertaste tea like Oolong, creates a flawlessly balanced picture that makes the drinker feel extraordinarily relaxed.
Brewing Tea Base and Chia Prep
- Roasted Oolong Tea: Steep 5g in 150ml hot water for 10 minutes. Filter out leaves, refrigerate to chill.
- Chia seeds: 1 teaspoon, soaked in 20ml warm water for 5 minutes until fully bloomed into jelly-like sacs, adding fun texture.
- Canned Lychee (or peeled fresh lychees): 3 whole fruits.
- Lychee syrup (brine from the can): 30ml
Bringing High-tea Spirit Home
The art of fruit tea lies entirely in its temperature. Warm tea makes fruits taste overpowering and fermented. Toss the oolong base, lychee syrup, and half a spoon of sugar into a shaker and shake well. Pour the bloomed chia seeds to the bottom of a tall elegant glass. Tightly pack the decisive factor, King Ice crystal cubes, into the glass. Finally, pour the shaken tea mix over the ice, place lychees on the surface. Drop in a sprig of Rosemary (lightly torch the tip for aromatics). Sit back and indulge!
| Pro Tip | Use King Ice pure ice cubes for deep cooling, longer melting time, and 100% food safety. Buy directly from our factory or nearest dealers! |
