Additional advice

- For an iced tea with a more intense taste, it suffices to let the tea steep for a longer time, up to 4 hours. Taste every now and then to make sure the tea doesn't get too strong.

- For the tea to retain all its benefits, it is better to use water at room temperature, rather than boiling water. In this way, the vitamins and minerals in the tea are preserved. The taste of the tea is also less bitter, as the tannin does not settle at the bottom of the decanter.

- If you like your tea to be more fragrant, you can let the organic lemon slice infuse in the iced tea. Of course, you can also squeeze several lemon slices to accentuate the taste.

- Do you want your tea to cool faster? Put it in the freezer for 1 hour, after having infused it. It is best to prepare a large quantity of tea that you leave in the fridge. Whenever you feel like it, pour yourself a glass and squeeze the lemon juice into it.

- Know that you can keep your tea for 24 hours in a cool place, without it oxidizing.

- You can also add red fruits or raspberries to bring even more flavor to your cold drink.

- And why not vary the pleasures by changing the tea: black tea, jasmine tea, white tea?
