Method
- Inspect the dried leaves and discard any that are moldy, damp, dusty, or not labelled for food use.
- Bring the water to a boil, then remove the pot from the heat.
- Add the leaves and citrus peel, cover, and steep for 7–10 minutes.
- Taste after 7 minutes; continue only if you want a stronger, more tannic infusion.
- Strain through a fine sieve and sweeten lightly while hot if desired.
- Serve warm with calamansi, or cool rapidly and refrigerate for an iced version.
- Use within 24 hours and keep chilled.
