Cold Brewed Ceylon Green Tea
teas.co.uk · 12 hr 10 min · Serves 4 from 1L
You'll need
- 8g Dilmah Ceylon Pure Green Loose Leaf Tea (about 3 heaped teaspoons)
- 1L cold filtered water
- 1 1L glass carafe with a tight seal lid
- 1 fine mesh sieve for straining
- 1 tall 450ml serving glass per serving, chilled
- Enough cubed ice per serving (about 250g)
Method
- Put the loose leaves into a 1-litre carafe or jug.
- Pour over a litre of cold filtered water and seal or cover.
- Leave it in the fridge for about twelve hours, or overnight.
- Strain through a fine sieve into a clean jug to remove the leaves.
- Serve over ice; it keeps, sealed in the fridge, for a couple of days.
- Use cold water, not hot; the slow cold steep is what keeps green tea sweet and free of bitterness.
