Many beautiful girls can’t wait to put on short skirts and stockings. Occasionally, you are lucky to be a dick~~ ~Well, I seem to be off topic. In fact, what I want to introduce to you below is how to make your own cooling ice tea. You don’t need to buy ice tea bags. You can easily make the ideal and delicious ice tea at home by using loose tea. For the specific production method, follow the illustrated tutorial below.
How to make your own iced tea?
There are several ways to make ice tea. The cold brew tea introduced here is relatively simple, safe and convenient. Making cold brew tea does not require any professional knowledge or skills. It only requires loose tea, room temperature water, jars or jugs. However, the production process of cold brew tea generally takes 8-12 hours, which requires a long time and needs to be prepared one day in advance.
Ingredients and tools for making your own iced tea:
Loose tea, jars or pitchers with lids, purified or mineral water, refrigerator.
Steps to make homemade iced tea:
Add tea leaves and water to the jar at a ratio of 4g tea leaves per 12 ounces of water (340g). Green tea is used here, and the tea leaves cover approximately 75% of the bottom of the jar. If you make a larger bottle or the tea leaves are fluffy, you can completely cover the bottom of the tank.
After filling with water, close the lid tightly and place the jar in the refrigerator to rest for 8-12 hours or in the refrigerator.
After cold steeping, the tea leaves will sink to the bottom of the bottle. There is no need to use other containers to filter the tea leaves. The tea leaves remaining at the bottom of the bottle will not pour out and look good. Long-term low-temperature extraction will not make the tea taste too bitter.
When drinking, prepare a glass and fill it with ice cubes. You can add some sliced ??fruits, honey, sugar or syrup according to your personal taste. To maintain the best flavor, drink within a week.
