Make Perfect Tea Every Time
Any of our St. James Teas can be made to perfection, hot or iced, by following these steps. This is the tried-and-true, works-every-time method. Start with a perfectly brewed hot tea, then make it iced. While some teas work well by cold brewing, this hot brew method is consistent across all our St. James Teas.
First, Make it Hot
1. Measure loose leaf tea into a strainer, about 1 generous tsp. for every 6 oz. water.
2. Heat water to temperature listed on our packages (boiling for blacks and herbals, simmering for most everything else).
3. Steep leaves in heated water to the time listed on our packages for best flavor.
Then, Make it Iced
1. Measure, Heat, and Steep exactly as you would to Make it Hot.
2. Cool on counter completely to lock in flavor.
3. Chill in refrigerator until cold or pour over ice to serve.
