Quickly rinse again with boiling water to awaken the aroma. Place the peel in a thermal flask, pour in 500ml of boiling water, and steep. The duration can be adjusted to personal taste, though it is best not to steep for too long.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e                           \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jiangnan Art Tea","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52607152718106,"sku":null,"price":42.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/7569\/0778\/files\/20260729212923_1916_5.jpg?v=1785334324","url":"https:\/\/jiangnanart.shop\/pt\/products\/2019-authentic-aged-chinese-xinhui-natural-tangerine-peel-chenpi","provider":"Jiangnan Art Tea","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
