What makes a tea "oolong?"
Oolongs are partially oxidized teas - somewhere between a green and black. It's what happens when you work with tea to achieve a specific oxidation level, and then cook the leaves to lock in the flavor and aroma at a very specific point in time.
Tea between 8 and 85 percent of oxidation are typically considered perfect for oolongs. Making oolong tea requires a level of skill and mastery that is hard to come by. In the world of teas, oolongs are perhaps one of the more complicated varieties. We kind of compare oolong teas to what Pinot Noir is to wine.
For a real treat try adding some rich fresh cream or flavored amaretto cream for a dessert tea. Pairs well with melons, fish, and chicken in a cream or white wine sauce.
Ingredients - Black tea, apricot pieces, marigold petals, and fruit flavor.
