- ✓Use a 1:8 ratio of ingredients to water by weight to achieve optimal flavor extraction without overwhelming bitterness from tannins or oils that develop with higher concentrations.ingredient1:8 ratio
- ✓Muddle or lightly bruise herbs and citrus peels for 30 seconds before infusing to break cell walls and increase surface area, releasing 3x more flavor compounds into the water.technique30 seconds
