With the birds chirping, flowers blooming, and in general, the weather getting warmer, I’ve found that my hot tea drinking days are few and far between. I’ve been craving cold brew tea and when I say crave, I mean I am gulping and sipping down cold brew tea with reckless abandonment. All I do is set up either my Libre Tea Infuser with a healthy dose of ice and water with either my loose leaf/tea sachet or I set up a giant mason jar I have with ice, water, and a larger ice tea pouch/reusable muslin tea bag with lots of loose leaf. Both produce amazing results and are quick for this mom on the go.
The other day I was wanting more of a citrus tea but wasn’t finding one that really sounded like it would hit the spot. Hence where Citrus Green from Adagio Teas enters the scene. As soon as I saw this lonely tea sachet in the midst of my loose leaf tea stash, I knew this was the tea for me.
I promptly filled my Libre Tea with ice, freshly filtered water and popped the tea sachet into the infuser. Waited about 30 minutes and took my first sip. Refreshing citrus green tea happily greeted me.
Refreshing green tea with a hint of a citrus note eagerly greeted me. With only cold brewing the tea for a short span of time, the flavors were not allowed to really settle and develop. But what I had, I did like. Crisp Green tea with hints here and there of a combination of orange, lime, and lemon. I think with this being a citrus flavored tea, an addition of a dash of mint would really escalate the tea and I plan to do just that the next time I find myself with this particular tea blend. Even with the more subtle tea flavors, this tea hit the spot and I would have no problem picking some more up to properly cold brew and yield the fullest flavor I can.
Here’s the scoop!
