You can enjoy it with either cold brew or hot tea. In the case of cold brew, it is best to add room temperature water and let it brew for a slightly longer 20-30 minutes in the refrigerator. For warm tea, brew with hot water below 70˚C for about 1 minute. For the 2nd and 3rd infusions, raise the temperature slightly or lengthen the brewing time.
