Hey everyone!

Ive been recently brewing up some white blueberry iced tea and its been great although Im still wondering if Im doing it right because it lets me resteep and comes out with that darker golden color after like 6-7 steeps!! Im using 12 oz of water and 6 grams of tea for 3-5 min steeps. Is this correct? Thanks.
Oh and do I do the same for blacks and greens on ice?

I've found that with white tea, I can get gorgeously colored steeps 6-8 times in, but after the third or fourth, they really just aren't worth drinking. Let your palate trump your eye in this one.
