Answer 8

Don't brew it hot, to be used to cold tea.

Cold tea tastes great, especially in the summer.  By brewing it in cold water in a sealed container, by doubling the amount of the Green Tea leaves used, it will still keep the aroma, the natural color and the medicinal health benefits of the Green Tea.

(4) Iced Green Tea

You should never brew Green Tea with hot water and then cool it to prepare cold, or iced tea.  Instead, please double the amount of the Green Tea leaves used to brew it in cold water in a sealed container.   This way you keep the aroma, the natural color and the medicinal health benefits of the Green Tea.  The reason this way is better, is that you avoid oxidation that can occur if the tea is left open to the air in an attempt to cool it after hot brewing.   The brewing time is actually very short.  For example, 10-15 cups of tea can be brewed in a jar in the ice box in just 30-45 minutes.  Please note that you can refill the jar with water to brew more tea when the level reaches one third full.   You may repeat the same procedure up to 3 times using the same Green Tea leaves.  It is better than drinking water for walkers, runners, cycling, mountain climbing or any athletic sport in general that demands replenishment of body fluids.
