Cold Brewing Green Tea

It is not necessary to use a special teapot for preparation. A glass or Pyrex container is good.

This technique brews an excellent cold green tea that is delightful and healthy.
Use a ratio of one to two tablespoons of tea leaves per liter of water. Place the tea leaves at the bottom of a large teapot or container.

Add water, cover the container, and refrigerate to steep. Let it steep in the refrigerator for about three hours. Give the pot a gentle horizontal swirl or a stir before drinking, as leaves may settle to the bottom during brewing.

Cold Brewing Japanese Green Tea (Iced Method)

"Koridashi" is a Japanese method of brewing tea by steeping tea leaves with melting ice cubes. The tea has a mellow flavor that is delicious during the summer months.

Cover the tea leaves with high-quality ice made from purified water. Let the tea melt at room temperature. It takes about 30 minutes to one hour.

Pour into a teacup or glass over ice.

Enjoy a cold and delicious serving of your favorite green tea!
