I decided to give this a try cold steeped first. It worked better than I expected!
I really love the combination of what really tastes like fermented grapes and black tea. It’s a lot easier to drink than red wine can be…actually I’m not a big fan of Merlot but I really love this.
I’ll give it a shot hot sometime, but I really like how it tastes iced. It might suit my tastes better iced because hot grape flavors and I aren’t too friendly.
I should try it that way! Sounds good. Do you cold steep even blacks for hours, or reduce the time at all?
I cold steep blacks for about 10-14 hours, usually making it around 10-11pm and then taking the leaves out when I wake up/remember.
