Twinings Peach Cooler, in summary: The cold-brew-optimised peach summer drink: a 5 to 10 minute fridge brew, no kettle, with a finer leaf cut.
Last reviewed by the teas.co.uk team in .

Twinings Peach Cooler is part of the brand's Cold Infuse range, designed specifically for cold-water brewing in 5 to 10 minutes rather than the 6-to-8-hour wait standard tea bags need. Larger fruit and tea pieces mean faster cold extraction: drop one bag in a 500ml water bottle, wait 5 minutes, drink. Excellent calorie-free summer hydration, and the format that turns iced fruit tea into a grab-and-go office drink.

The product

A Cold Infuse bag with larger fruit and tea pieces designed for direct cold-water extraction. Standard tea bags use small particles for fast hot extraction; Cold Infuse bags use larger particles that release flavour efficiently in cold water without the bitterness that long cold-brewing of standard bags can produce.

How to use

  1. 1 bag in 500ml cold water (a standard sports bottle).
  2. Wait 5 to 10 minutes, far faster than the 6-to-8-hour fridge cold-brew of standard bags.
  3. Drink chilled; the bag can stay in the bottle while you drink.
  4. Refill once with the same bag for a second 500ml; the flavour will be lighter.
  5. Discard after a single use; it is not designed for hot brewing.

How it tastes

A bright peach lead, lightly sweet, faintly floral, cleanly refreshing. Less intense than the hot-brewed Twinings Peach and Orange, but far more vivid than you would get cold-brewing a standard bag for 5 minutes. The format delivers on its promise. Curator Rating: 4.9/5.

Use cases

  • An office water bottle, the natural format.
  • Travel and commuting; drop a bag in a bottle in the morning.
  • A picnic and gym-bag drink.
  • Caffeine-free with no added sugar, so an easy family option.
  • A soft-drink alternative for hot weather.

Cold Infuse versus cold-brewing standard bags

Standard Twinings fruit bags can be cold-brewed too (6 to 8 hours in the fridge), and most are excellent that way. Cold Infuse bags do the same job in 5 to 10 minutes by using bigger particles; the trade-off is they do not hot-brew well. Pick Cold Infuse for convenience, or standard bags if you want one format for both.

From the curatorteas · The infusion is more important than the shop. A short careful brew can lift a budget bag past a careless premium one.
