Both are good ways to drink the tea.  Most people are familiar with brewing hot
tea.  Some research shows that less
caffeine comes out of the leaves when you do a cold brew, and that can be an option
when choosing which way to brew if caffeine is an issue for you.  The good thing about cold brew is that you
can make a great iced tea out of it and you don't need any sugar as the enzymes
release a natural sugar as it cools in the refrigerator.  The downside is cold brew requires more time
for the nutrients to come out of the tea leaves.  Typical steep time for cold brew is 6-8
hours. Follow our guidelines for brewing your tea hot or cold at www.teabotanics.com/brewing.
