Iced Green Tea - The Perfect Cup
Water quality is important, avoid mineral or chlorinated water, it is best to
use purified or distilled water to prepare green tea.
To prepare iced green use a pyrex or heat resistant glass container a pyrex
coffee container will work just fine.
With our tea bags:
1. Pour 4 cups of room temperature water into the container.
2. Add 2 teabags. Move it back and forth slowly several times. Please note
that you move the teabag back and forth, unlike preparing hot tea.
3. After 30 seconds or so of moving the teabag back and forth place the
container in the refrigerator. Leave the teabag inside.
4. Chill for two hours or more, some teas may steep in this manner for
8 hours. Take the container out of the refrigerator, remove the teabag,
then pour yourself a glass of the finest iced green tea you can make with a bag!
This tea will stay clear, unlike hot brewed iced tea, which often clouds as
it cools.
This is a special iced green tea
recipe
You can also make iced tea with loose tea leaves.
If you are preparing iced green tea with loose tea leaves:
Pour hot water over 3 times (if you are going to drink this over ice) the
amount of tea that you would normally use for hot tea. Fill the container until
it is half full. After the tea has steeped for about 2 minutes put ice into the
container until it is full. Most of the ice will melt almost immediately and
dilute the tea to its proper level. After approximately 3 minutes you can pour
over ice and serve.
Some people like to pour it over a tea net to trap all of the loose leaves.
Some don't. It is delicious both ways. If the container you use doesn't have a
lid that traps most of the leaves then you should use a net.
