    Once the tea is brewed, we recommends keeping it in the refrigerator and drinking it within twenty-four hours because green tea in particular, oxidizes quickly.

    TIP : When one is short of time or in case of sudden desire … the alternative is to infuse hot tea as usual and then to “iced” it : blend it with iced cubes in a shaker. But be careful not to “drown” the subtle aromas with melting ice … In this case, we recommend to ensure slightly overdose and over-brew the tea.

    Do it in glass carafe/bottle only. Please don’t use hot tea in plastic bottle. Learn about the correlation between hot plastic and breast cancer
