Bai Hao oolong is more like a black tea than oolongs. I think the best way to enjoy it is to infuse it like a black tea, i.e. longer infusion time. For a ratio of 90 ml to 2.5 g, I think I’d infuse it at least for 3 minutes. If you trust the hygiene of your source, do not blanch the tealeaves, but instead preheat your pot real well.
