I was so excited to try this! The dry leaf smells amazing-a very fruity scent. I put 2 Perfect Spoons in the small Davidstea steeper with 2 cups water. I put it in the fridge and left it in there overnight (about 12 hours). I am surprised at how nice and dark the color got without adding hot water. I enjoyed this cup of cold brewed tea. I can taste orange and lemongrass mostly with a hint of passion fruit at the end (I always found passion fruit tastes similar to grapefruit). It would be interesting to see how this one turns out with the usual hot water steeping, then iced. The waiting is the worst part but I guess if you prepare if before going to bed, the waiting isn’t so bad because you’re asleep haha

Just be careful with how long you steep it if you decide to make it hot; these guys are designed specifically for cold water so when you steep them with hot they steep quickly! :)
Thank you for the heads up-I shall be careful! How long would you recommend? 2-3 minutes? :)
I’ve not personally tried to make any of them hot (I own all three), but I’d probably say to lean conservatively at least for the first infusion until you get a sense of how potent they may be – so maybe two minutes?
Ok, thanks :)
