Try It Yourself →Tips for a Better Glass
- Steep completely before adding milk. Letting the tea finish steeping in cold water ensures the full tea and lemonade flavor comes through cleanly.
- Use oat or almond milk for extra smoothness. Plant-based milks blend effortlessly with cold brew tea for a silky texture.
- Chill your glass ahead of time. A frosty glass keeps the ice from melting too quickly and preserves the crisp citrus notes.
