Cold Brew Tea: Berry Hibiscus
Easy, delicious, and refreshing! Steep this tea overnight and enjoy the next day with your sweetener of choice and/or some lemonade!
Equipment
- Large glass jar or pitcher- I like to use one that's around 32 fluid-ounces. Can be with or without a lid.
- Measuring Spoons
- Stirring spoon
- Fine mesh strainer or cheese cloth- optional, if you are using loose leaf tea instead of tea bags
Ingredients
- 4-6 cups of filtered water
- Sweetener of choice to taste
- Sliced fruit- optional see "ingredient variations" above
- Lemonade- optional add-in
Instructions
- First, add tea bags or loose leaf tea to a clean jar or pitcher. Add in any fruit slices if desired.
- Next, fill the water to the top of the jar or pitcher and place it in the fridge for at least 12 hours.
- After at least 12 hours, remove cold brew tea from the fridge. Stir the tea and add in any desired sweetener.
- Pour the hibiscus cold brew tea into tall glasses over ice. Add lemonade to taste if wanted and enjoy!
Notes
Keep the berry hibiscus cold brew tea refrigerated and enjoy within 3-5 days of brewing. Avoid leaving cold brew tea out of the fridge for too long.
Is this drink child friendly? Yes! This tea is caffeine free making it a wonderful choice for children!
Can I make a big batch of this? Of course, I suggest getting a drink dispenser and then adding more tea leaves or tea bags depending on how big the dispenser is. Tea bags might be easier to work with if you don't want to have to strain out all of the tea leaves. Add in some sliced fruit and lemonade or sparkling water for a fun twist.
Can I speed up the process? To speed up the process, while keeping the flavor of the tea strong, you'd have to boil the water. You certainly can do it this way, but the tea will not longer be cold brew.
