As the name suggests, cold brew tea is a tea soup extracted by soaking tea leaves in cold or ice water for a long time. Compared with ordinary hot brewing tea, cold brewing releases the substances contained in the tea leaves differently, so the color, aroma and taste of the tea will be completely different. The tea soup of cold brew tea will be clearer and brighter, and the taste will be sweet but not bitter. It is a must-have brewing method for coolness in summer.

1. Generally speaking, the higher the degree of fermentation of tea, the longer the essence extraction time will be during cold brewing, and the tea juice will come out more slowly. Therefore, when it comes to choosing cold brew tea, it is recommended that you choose green tea, white tea, black tea, oolong tea and scented tea with a relatively low degree of fermentation. Green tea: Green tea is fresh and fragrant. After cold brewing, the bitterness will be significantly reduced, making the freshness and sweetness more prominent. For example, famous green teas such as Dongting Biluochun, West Lake Longjing and Huangshan Maofeng are suitable for cold brewing. The freshness and sweetness are more obvious, and it has a unique taste compared to ordinary hot soaking. Black tea: Black tea contains higher sweetness, so it is also very suitable for cold brewing. However, not all black teas are suitable for cold brewing. It is recommended that you use common Dianhong and other black teas for cold brewing, such as Lapsang Souchong, a black tea with a more prominent aroma, can only bring out its original characteristics when it is hot. Oolong tea: The aroma of oolong tea is more intense, and the scent is not easily stimulated by the follicles. Therefore, it is recommended that you choose light-flavored oolong tea, such as Dongding Oolong and light-flavored Tieguanyin. Scented tea: The types of scented tea are very rich. You can usually choose the common jasmine tea, osmanthus tea, etc., which are all very good choices.

2. Next, I will recommend a few tea products that I often use to make cold brew tea. Chayanyuese Osmanthus Oolong Tea

As a trendy tea product that is more in line with the style of young people, first of all, it is packaged in tea bags, so it is more convenient to carry and brew. Secondly, you can currently buy two large cans of 16 bags of tea in the official Tmall store for about 48 yuan, which is a good value for money.

Cold brewing tea usually takes a long time, and the same goes for this tea. It takes a longer time, but the taste is extremely delicious, because it is a cold brewing tea. It is a tea bag with a main flavor. I have also recommended it in other answers, but when I drink it as cold brew tea, I feel like I have discovered a new world, and the taste is better than the tea drinks I usually buy, and the fragrance is better. It's also more advanced, after all, it's freshly brewed. The rich and long fragrance of osmanthus, coupled with the aroma of oolong tea, a little rock sugar in the tea bag, and the cold taste all complement each other.

The only drawback is that the rock sugar granules in the tea bag melt slowly. Xihu Brand White Can Yuqian Longjing

comes from one of the top tea brands in China. Currently, a small jar of 50g is available on Tmall for only 21 yuan.

Mainly collected from tea leaves before Guyu. The tea leaves are very fragrant and tender, and the bitter taste is very light. If it is used for cold brewing, it is perfect since the light bulb can slowly stimulate more of the tea leaves. The tea aroma makes the original aroma purer and longer. The low temperature environment can effectively suppress the bitterness in the tea leaves, making the already little bitterness darker, leaving only a rich and long-lasting tea. Fragrant.

I prefer to soak it in ice water, or soak it in low-temperature water and then add ice, because the lower the temperature, the longer the soaking time will be. Use it for cold brewing, whether as a drink in summer or as a daily drink. It has a refreshing fragrance, quenches thirst, and is warm and refreshing. It is very good. A cup of Xiangzhiping K368 Jasmine Tea

As an affordable brand of scented tea, both price and quality are very good. A half-pound jar costs about 60 yuan.

I think cold brewing is the most suitable for scented tea. If it were not for the temperature changes throughout the year, I could even use foaming scented tea all the time.

Their jasmine tea is not just jasmine flowers, but a package of jasmine flowers and green tea mixed together. It is a strong-flavor tea, so the taste of jasmine will be more intense. If used for cold brewing, it can not only fully evaporate the fragrance of jasmine, but also effectively reduce the bitterness in jasmine and green tea. The fragrance of jasmine tea and the fragrance of green tea are the most perfect combination, plus cold brewing. The low-temperature bubble makes them more refreshing, and the aroma is more delicate and long-lasting. When you take one sip into your throat, the aroma goes straight into your heart. It is a unique taste that is difficult to describe in words.
