Heat the Water to approximately 80-85 degrees Celsius. Avoid boiling vigorously to preserve the delicate flavor of the tea.

Place the 5 grams of Lu'an Guapian green tea leaves into a clean glass gaiwan or a tall glass.

Pour a small amount of the heated Water over the Lu'an Guapian green tea leaves, just enough to cover them, and immediately discard this rinse. This step awakens the tea leaves.
