Cold brewed loose leaf tea is a fabulous way to increase your hydration during hot weather and if you choose to make sugar free iced tea it’s even healthier!

Made from your choice of fruit tisanes, herbal teas, black teas and even green teas such as popular Japanese green tea blends, iced tea recipes can be as healthy (or sweet!) as you like to make them.

Opting for healthy? Create sweet teas the healthy way by adding fresh fruit such as strawberries, pineapple, watermelon or mango slices for added lip-smacking sweetness minus the sugar.

Cold brew tea is made using room temperature or cold water instead of hot tea. The infused iced tea takes several hours to steep, but the flavors are ahhhh-mazing.

The bitter tannic acids in tea are drawn out by hot water, so if you’re making iced tea with black tea or green tea, choose a cold brew tea for lighter, smoother flavors without the bitter kick.

Some bold choices for a cold brew tea include:

• Japanese Sencha with a citrusy twist of lemon
• Adelaide Breakfast for a black tea blend sweetened with cranberry, blackberry leaf and zingy lemongrass accents
• Oolong Berry for fragrant black and green tea notes with ripples of refreshing raspberries.

It’s hard not to feel hydrated when sipping on long, fruity-tuity splashes of iced tea! Add lots of ice and garnish with juicy fruits such as watermelon or lime slices for added hydration.

Black tea and green tea do contain caffeine and can have mild diuretic effects, whilst fruit and herbal tisanes will keep you hydrated during those warmer months.

You can brew iced tea with any tea leaves or tea bags that take your fancy. If you use black tea bags or tea leaves or you make green iced tea then it will have caffeine, but if you choose fruit tisanes or herbal teas your tealiciously invigorating iced tea will be caffeine free.
