Anybody ever try rishi tea?

I'm trying the Jasmine Pearl Green Tea, and wondering...how dark should it look when it's ready? :shrug:

1. It should look dark in the mug but lighter in a clear glass.

When I reaches that perfect color, tourmaline-green, you pour it all down the drain and pop yourself a brewski. :P

It was quite nice actually. And, warm.

I'm headed for bed now...good night, little sis! :hug:

4. Rishi's based in Milwaukee, so a lot of coffeehouses and restaurants carry it.

Why not...taste the tea, and if it's not strong enough, let it steep longer?

BTW: a quick google search found an Amazon page that shows these instructions:
Preparation: Rishi teas can be prepared using a teapot, full-your-own tea bag, infuser basket or traditional teaware. Refer to the Rishi Tea Guide inside this cam for more tips on making the perfect cup. Use 1 tablespoon per 8 ounces. Pour 185 degrees F water over the tealeaves. Steep for 3-4 minutes, then decant the tea. 1 Serving of Jasmine Pearl can be steeped 4 times.

5. Reishi?

as in the mushroom? Or something different? I've never heard of rishi.

What properties does it have? (or is it just a taste issue)

6. I'm nearly positive it's a brand name of green teas. nt
