As summer approaches, and the mercury rises, customers everywhere are looking for cold beverages that will quench the thirst and provide a welcome energy boost.
Over the years, I have experimented with numerous ways to make fresh brewed iced teas and as well, to come up with new drink concoctions that incorporate the hottest and trendiest teas on the market.

In today's tea culture, iced tea is way more then just black orange pekoe with a slice of lemon.
Fresh Brewing Method
Without any machinery, other then a french press, I have been making fresh brewed iced teas for patrons for almost a 9+ years with very high levels of satisfaction.
You make the tea extra strong, use much less water (about 1/2 the press), agitate the leaves often and the pour over a glass or pitcher of fresh cubes.
viola! - fresh brewed iced tea on the spot and... unsweetened, which is how I am finding more people want it served to them.
They can add sweetener if they want, as we make a simple syrup from organic unrefined cane sugar available at the to-go station.
Your High powered blender
Our teahouse has a high powered blender as well. We take our exquisite chai concentrate, some milk, a dash of chai sprinkles all into the blender for 15 seconds. The result is a chai smoothie that is not too sweet, yet very authentic in taste. Here, real rules!
So, as the summer approaches, don't be afraid to experiment with all your teas and other tea beverages. The sky is the limit here folks and the more creative you are, the better you will stand out from the guys down the street who add a slice of lemon to their chilled supermarket tea bag.
wishing you a super successful summer season,
BEST OF LUCK!
