Chill out with loose leaf
Cold brew loose leaf tea for proper iced refreshment
There is something quietly brilliant about cold brew tea. No kettle, no fuss, just leaves steeping slowly in cold water until they give up something smooth, naturally sweet and utterly thirst-quenching. The long infusion softens tannins and brings forward fruit and floral notes you might miss in a hot cup. Pop a jar in the fridge before bed, wake up to something genuinely refreshing.
This collection pulls together loose leaf blends that shine over ice. Fruity caffeine-free options like Honeyed Peach, Strawberry Rhubarb and Mango Fire sit alongside proper teas such as Jasmine Green, Orange Jasmine Oolong and Lychee Congou FOP for those who want a gentle lift with their cold drink. Whether you favour something tropical or floral, bold or delicate, there is a brew here that suits.
Cold infused tea works beautifully for picnics, desk sipping, or simply surviving a warm afternoon. The range covers herbal infusions for evening, green teas for a lighter caffeine hit, and black tea if you want more body. All hand-packed in Yorkshire and ready to steep the slow way.
How to choose
Pick by caffeine
Herbal blends like Raspberry Lemon Verbena and Fruit Full are caffeine-free, ideal for evenings or for children. Jasmine Green and Lychee Congou deliver a gentler lift than coffee.
Match to your mood
Craving something tropical? Try Mango Fire or Strawberry Kiwi. After something subtler? Lychee & Jasmine Green or Calming Tulsi bring floral, delicate notes without sweetness overload.
Think about sweetness
Most fruit herbals taste naturally sweet with no sugar needed. If you prefer less sweetness, lean towards the green teas or oolong, which cold brew into something clean and crisp.

Cold Brew Tea: How to Make Smooth Iced Tea OvernightHow do you cold brew loose leaf tea?
Add one teaspoon of leaves per 250ml of cold water in a jar or jug. Refrigerate for six to twelve hours, then strain. The slow steep gives a smoother, less bitter result than hot-brewed tea poured over ice.
Can you cold brew herbal tea?
Absolutely. Fruit and herbal blends steep beautifully in cold water. They often taste sweeter and more rounded than when brewed hot, and they are naturally caffeine-free.
What is the best loose leaf tea for iced tea?
Fruit herbals like Strawberry Rhubarb give instant refreshment. Jasmine Green or Orange Jasmine Oolong work well if you want a more traditional iced tea with gentle caffeine.
How long does cold brew tea last in the fridge?
Strain out the leaves after steeping and store your cold brew in the fridge. It keeps best when finished within a few days while the flavour is still bright.
Is cold brew tea stronger than hot brewed?
Caffeine extraction is actually lower with cold water, so cold brew tends to be milder. Flavour-wise it is smoother and less astringent, not stronger.
