Hi.
If you’re not in a very sunny place, should you leave your leaves and blossoms to infuse for longer? If so, how much? Or would heating be a suitable alternative?

Thanks for checking in, Gavin! Yes, we would let them infuse longer if not in the sun (rather than applying heat) — it’s best to decide if the infusion is strong enough based on the darkness of the color and the strength of the flavor. We recommend tasting after the first few days and then allowing to infuse longer if you don’t think the tea flavor is strong enough yet.
