Cold brew is the gentlest way to make iced tea: leaf and cold water, left in the fridge for several hours, then strained. Because no heat forces out the harsh compounds, the result is naturally sweeter, smoother and far less bitter than tea brewed hot and chilled, which is why even delicate greens and fruit blends work beautifully this way. It also forgives imprecision, there is little to scorch and little to over extract in the usual sense, so it is the most beginner proof method in the wiki. Use a generous amount of leaf, give it eight to twelve hours, and keep it sealed in the fridge. Every recipe below already exists in the linked product is recipe tab; this page simply gathers the cold brew friendly ones. The science of why cold extraction is smoother is covered in how to brew green tea and the water temperature guide, and the hot glass alternative in the iced tea recipes and cold brew guide.
