What is cold brew tea?  

Cold brew literally means cold brew. Instead of hot water, you use cold water to brew the tea. This requires some planning as the tea needs to infuse for at least 6 hours. Cold brew tea has a number of advantages over traditionally brewed tea.  

  • It extracts less bitter substances from the tea leaves than tea made with hot water. This results in an infusion with a mild taste.  
  • Less bitter means that less or no sweetener needs to be used. Cold brew tea therefore contains far fewer calories than iced tea as you buy it in the shops.  
  • When made with cold water, white tea contains more antioxidants than when made with hot water.  

How to make cold brew tea?  

Making cold brew tea is so simple that it hardly needs to be called a recipe. We will share with you two ways to make cold brew tea.  

Recipe cold brew tea:  

  • Put 1 litre of filtered water in a large sterilized pot or glass bottle.  
  • Add 10 to 13 grams of loose tea  
  • Flavor the tea with fresh ginger, mint, lemon or other fruits and herbs if desired  
  • Optional: add sweetener as you like. This is not necessary.  
  • Stir all ingredients well  
  • Put the cap on the pot or bottle  
  • Place the tea in the fridge for at least 6 hours  
  • Strain the tea leaves from the tea  
  • Enjoy your homemade cold brew tea!  

Which tea to use for cold brew tea?  

For Cold Brew tea, we recommend tea which grows in our higher plantations. The grade of this tea is: Broken Orange Pekoe. This tea has a refined taste which results in a delicious iced tea. To make your choice easy, we have collected all these teas on a Cold Brew iced tea page. All the teas on this page are suitable for making iced tea.  

Cold brew tea on the go  

Are you often on the move? Then make your cold brew tea in our double-walled tea bottle to go. This bottle contains a filter, so no loose tea gets in your mouth while drinking. The double wall of this bottle makes sure your tea stays cool longer.  

Cold brew dilution  

We have a very lazy colleague who always comes up with hacks to get through life effortlessly. She makes a strong cold brew that she lets steep for a little less time, drinks three quarters of it and refills the bottle with cold water. The second brew needs less time to infuse because the tea leaves have already unfolded and developed.
