How to Cold Brew Tea: The Secret to Perfect Iced Tea
Are you tired of iced tea that starts too strong and ends too weak? The secret to making great iced tea at home is learning how to cold brew tea. Like the best tea subscription brings you the best tea, cold brewing brings out all the great flavors of the tea without any bitterness.
Here’s how to do it:
-
Choose high-quality loose leaf teas. Our personalized tea subscriptions offer a great selection, but even less expensive teas taste better when cold brewed.
-
Use more tea than for hot brewing. Use about a tablespoon of tea per cup of water. You can always dilute it later if it’s too strong.
-
Cover and refrigerate overnight. This prevents the tea from absorbing fridge odors.
-
Discard or filter out the tea leaves.
-
Serve and enjoy! Add mint, lemon, honey, or sugar if desired.
Now that you know how to cold brew tea, consider one of our iced tea subscriptions to get started with delicious cold brewed teas at home!
