Young Hyson is supposed to be a more profitable tea than Hyson;
but though the _quantity_ to a pound is greater, it has not so
much _strength_. In point of economy, therefore, there is not much
difference between them. Hyson tea and Souchong mixed together, half
and half, is a pleasant beverage, and is more healthy than green
tea alone. Be sure that water boils before it is poured upon tea. A
tea-spoonful to each person, and one extra thrown in, is a good rule.
Steep ten or fifteen minutes.
