The very first scout who worked solo, Sailor V is the precursor to Sailor Venus. Like Venus, Sailor V's tea is creamy and sweet, but with a kick of warm coconut wonderfulness. Vanilla oolong rounds out the flavor, and cream ceylon forms body that makes this tea a fantastic standalone that don't need no team mates!
Oolong teas are generally treated the same as black teas, steeping around 180-195F/82-90C. I prefer the lower end of the bracket, personally. I think the flavor comes out smoother and you get more of that classic velvety mouthfeel oolongs are known for, and the leaves resteep better. This tea will get approximately 3 resteeps. If you want stronger flavor, add more tea leaves, not more time. To prepare iced, simply use twice the tea leaves and half the water you usually would. Use the same amount of time (3 minutes). Drop over a full cup of ice, to flash chill and dilute to regular strength. To conserve leaves, just steep hot and put into the fridge.
