How To Make Sweet Tea
Cold sweet tea, anyone? Black tea best gives out its sweet flavour by cold infusion, so if you want to make some cups, this video will show you how.
To make this tea, I'm using sweet large chai black tea. Now, most people, when making cold tea, they tend to be brewing tea with double the quantity and half the water amount but I think the best way to extract this sweet flavor of black tea is to actually do a cold infusion. Now, in this pot, I have some large leaf black tea that had been fused in cold water overnight, over at least four, five hours outside.
I have here also a glass of ice, there's no sweetener as you can see, some mint to decorate because large chai tea, large chai black tea is a scented black tea that's naturally sweet. So you do not need to add anymore honey or sugar or syrup. So, it is a very healthy drink.
So after infusing for at least four hours, I will pour this with a filter through into the cup. Now, this infusion here can be used as a base for a lot of alcoholic drinks, so in British summer, if you like, this can be a base for pints. So, I'm decorating it with a sprig of mint.
If you want, you can add fresh lime juice that will accent the large chi black tea flavor. .
