    "content_text": "Cold-brewing is a lovely way to drink pure green tea: a long, slow steep in cold water in the fridge draws out the sweetness and none of the bitterness that hot water can force out. Drop the loose leaves into a litre of cold water, leave it overnight, then strain and serve over ice.\n\nSource: Teas.co.uk. UK independent tea specialist, Tunbridge Wells, Kent.
