Think I may have steeped this too long today. It’s tasting more of black tea and zabaglione and not the bright tart strawberries from the first few cups. That, or I need to shake up the bag and get more berry parts in the brew. Still a good cuppa, just different.

I have had the best luck with 208 degrees and 2:30 steep time. It took some time playing with it.
Hmm- last nite I did the full 5 minutes and 212F in the Breville and no troubles.
I did it with a 2:30 steep at boiling, maybe a longer steep is necessary, although I usually do 3 minutes with Franks blacks.
I’m excited to be getting Harney’s Paris soon, so I can do a taste testing between this, Paris and Marco Polo and decide which strawberry tea needs to be in my cupboard at all time. If I can’t decide I will just have to alternate.
