Rather than using hot water then throwing a bunch of ice over it, I prefer to make iced tea using the easy and effective method of cold brewing.

Time 5m

Yield 10-12 cups, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 ounce loose leaf jasmine green tea (I get mine from www.teadojo.com)
3 liters filtered room temperature water
1 -2 tablespoon raw sugar or 1 -2 tablespoon honey
1 lemon

Steps:

  • In a large pitcher combine the tea and water. Mix the sugar or honey with about a cup of hot water so that it dissolves and will mix with the room temperature water. Add the sugar/ hot water mixture to the pitcher. Put the pitcher in the refrigerator (preferably before you go to sleep) and let the tea leaves soak until morning (9-12 hours). Add lemon to taste and then pour the tea through a strainer so as to catch the tea leaves before serving.
