Brewed Iced Tea

Cold-brewed or brewed-and-chilled black tea — the backbone of an Arnold Palmer.

Juices
Flavor profile: bitter

For cocktail use, brew strong black tea (two tea bags per cup of water is a reasonable ratio) and chill completely before combining with other ingredients. Lipton, Tetley, or a stronger Assam or Ceylon tea all work. Cold-brew produces a less tannic result and is worth the 12-hour lead time.

Common uses
