Why choose iced tea in summer?
Summer brings the need to stay hydrated and cool, and iced tea has become the perfect healthy alternative to sugary soft drinks. Do you know why it's so beneficial?
- Effectively hydrates without adding refined sugars
- Provides essential minerals like potassium, calcium and magnesium
- Low energy value compared to commercial soft drinks
- Rich in antioxidants that protect our cells
Whether you prepare it yourself or order it at an establishment, our advice is to prepare it with hot water to extract all the beneficial components. Once the infusion time has passed, then yes, add as many ice cubes as you like.
Hot water for iced tea in summer?
When we use hot water, the dry leaves become completely hydrated and the high temperature allows all active components to pass into the water. If we prepare directly with cold water, although the leaves hydrate, not all their beneficial properties will be extracted.
