Cold Brew Japanese Green Tea

You've probably heard of cold-brewed coffee, but what about cold-brewed tea? Cold brewing tea allows the sweetness and umami flavor to shine while reducing bitterness and astringency. Best of all, its super easy to do with no risk of over steeping! *Steeping times vary for different varieties, so there’s no standard on how to cold brew all green tea varieties. Fukamushi Sencha requires as little as five minutes, while Hojicha may need up to an hour to fully steep. Green tea varieties that are best for cold brewing: • Sencha Fukamushi • Gyokuro • Genmaicha • Kukicha • Hojicha
