Cold brew and iced tea are not the same drink.

Iced tea is brewed hot then cooled over ice. That gives you a stronger, more robust cup, but the heat can pull out bitterness along with the flavour.

Cold brew never sees heat at all. Instead of high temperatures doing the extraction, time does it. The result is smoother, naturally sweeter and much cleaner on the palate.

Here is how we make it at Tea Makers HQ.

1. Add 2 to 3 teaspoons of loose leaf to an 800ml glass teapot. That makes 2 to 3 cups.

2. Fill with cold tap water.

3. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Most teas want a minimum of 8 to 10 hours. The longer it brews, the stronger it gets.

4. Pour and enjoy chilled.

Short on kit? Drop a Triune teabag straight into your water bottle overnight and take it with you.

Four teas our tasters keep coming back to:

Margaret's Hope Second Flush. Darjeelings are among the lightest black teas, so they cold brew beautifully. Delicate, slightly floral and muscatel.

Japanese Sencha. Subtle green liquor with sweet grassy tones. A brilliant palate cleanser after a meal.

Oriental Beauty. A premium oolong with natural honey sweetness. Nutty at first, then clean and fruity.

Hibiscus Bora Bora. The king of our fruit teas. Sweet, tangy and naturally caffeine free, so it suits all ages.

Just water and tea leaves. No sugar, no artificial flavourings, no colours.

Which one would you brew first?

Three things people get wrong with matcha.

Water too hot. Anything near boiling scorches the leaf and turns it bitter. Aim for 70 to 80C.

Skipping the sift. Matcha clumps. Thirty seconds with a sieve is the difference between silky and gritty.

Stirring instead of whisking. A brisk W motion for 15 to 20 seconds is what builds the foam.

Full method in the video.
