Start small

Use a clean jar, drinking water and tea suitable for cold brewing according to its pack. For a tasting batch, try about 3g of leaf in 250ml of water. Cover and place it in the refrigerator rather than leaving it on the kitchen counter.

Taste and strain

Try the cup after several hours; six to eight hours is a starting point for flavour, not a universal rule. Strain the leaves, then taste before adding ice or citrus. If it is too strong, dilute the cup with drinking water.

Make the next batch yours

Use less leaf or a shorter time if you want a lighter drink. Keep it refrigerated and make small, fresh batches rather than treating a flavour suggestion as a shelf-life guarantee. Cold brewing does not establish a particular caffeine reduction for this tea.
