Hot and Cold Infused Teas Made Easy with Billi

Tea’s purported health benefits and massive variety make it an attractive choice for both summer and winter drinking, but with all these different kinds it can be a daunting learning curve to go from a standard English Breakfast bag to cold infusing your own teas.

Whether you already like a steamy cup of chamomile before bed or are dreaming of a refreshing glass of cold-brewed fruit-infused tea on a sunny afternoon, Billi’s instant boiling and chilled water systems can change how you make your favourite drink, keep reading to learn how to make infused teas easily at home or in the office with a Billi water system.

Step-by-Step Guide to Infused Teas

Tea infusions are drinks made by steeping plants or fruits in hot water. This probably sounds like making a regular cup of tea, but is generally used for ‘teas’ not made from the actual tea plant such as fruit or herbal teas.

These are generally delicious at all temperatures so we recommend trying each of these two main ways to make herbal, floral, and fruit infused teas:

Making Hot Infused Tea:

1. Select your preferred tea leaves or bags.
2. Make sure your instant boiling Billi tap is set to the perfect temperature and dispense water directly over the tea.
3. Allow to steep according to the type of tea
4. Enjoy as is or add sweeteners and milk as desired.
5. Optionally leave to cool to your desired temperature and refrigerate for later enjoyment.

Creating Cold Infused Tea:

1. Choose your tea type or mix – fruit teas can bring a natural sweetness to complex herbal flavours.
2. Fill a pitcher with cold water from your Billi system.
3. Add tea bags or loose-leaf tea in an infuser.
4. Refrigerate overnight for a delicately flavoured beverage the next day.
5. Serve over ice and perhaps a slice of lemon for that extra zest.

Important Note: Different teas will have different fridge lives but generally a good recommendation is to consume infused tea that has been properly stored in the fridge within a few days.
