Na pikniku paše ledeni čaj 🍹

Iced tea is perfect for a picnic 🍹

May Day is just around the corner – time for picnics, socializing, and enjoying the great outdoors. And what’s better than iced tea made at home from natural fruit teas? 🍹

Why choose iced tea over fruit teas?

🍓 No added sugar: the perfect alternative to carbonated drinks

🍑 Full of natural aromas: dried fruits, flowers and herbs for a full taste

🍋 Refreshing and healthy: hydration with character

🌿 You can combine them with fresh fruit, mint or lime

❄️ Cold soaking – natural tenderness of taste

Did you know that you can also make tea with cold water? Soaking tea leaves or fruit blends in cold water overnight allows for a gentle extraction that emphasizes sweet and fruity notes and reduces bitterness.


🫖 Cold soak process:

1. Add 2–3 teaspoons of fruit tea per liter of cold water to a pitcher.

2. Cover and refrigerate for 8–12 hours (preferably overnight).

3. Strain before serving and add ice, fresh fruit or herbs if desired.

🇯🇵 Tradition from Japan – Kōridashi method

As early as the 17th century, Japanese monks used the so-called Kōridashi method – preparing tea by melting ice. This slow and meditative method emphasizes sweetness and umami as the ice slowly drips over the tea leaves. The result is a subtle and refreshing drink without bitterness.

🧘 The perfect choice for lovers of aesthetics and delicate aromas.

🫐 Benefits of dried fruits in teas

Fruit teas are not only delicious – they are also full of nutrients:

  • • Fiber for good digestion

  • • Minerals like potassium, iron and magnesium

  • • Antioxidants that protect the body from oxidative stress

“Tea is not just a drink - it is a moment of peace that we give to ourselves. 🌼🌿”
