    "content_text": "Cold brewing steeps black tea slowly in cold water in the fridge rather than hot. Heat pulls tannin and bitterness out fast; cold water takes its time and draws mostly the soft, sweeter, low-astringency notes, so even a brisk builders' blend comes out mellow and gently sweet, with nothing harsh about it.\n\nSource: Teas.co.uk.
