Tea Mixologist Top Tip

Cold brew strawberry tea overnight in sparkling water; leave to infuse over night then pour over ice. If you want to make it a cheeky drink add a splash of gin or vodka to it. To learn how to make a tea concentrate click here.

This is a classic English Breakfast, flavourful; light to enjoy without milk. Or if you fancy a splash of milk, make sure you brew it for at least 4 mins to let the whole leaves properly infuse.

Day 11 Apple Strudel Tea
Apfelstrudel- the best thing to have come out of Austria since The Sound of Music. Now, the important question is not who had it first (the Austrians or the Germans), but rather what to have on your strudel. Are you a custard, cream or ice cream kinda chap?

We love this one simply brewed hot, but try adding a slice of apple, a sprinkle of cinnamon (& a shot of spiced rum) if you're feeling fancy!
