A Loose Leaf Tea inspired by our favorite Colas
Nothing beats an ice cold Cola on a hot muggy day. Folks in the South, Caribbean and West Africa have enjoyed Cola brewed from real Kola Nuts for centuries. We've taken it a step beyond just a simple Kola Tea and added Black Tea, Cinnamon, Lemon Verbena and Ginger to try to recreate a drink inspired by American cola sodas. We recommend sweetening with a teaspoon of Dark Brown Sugar and enjoy while swaying in a hammock.
Ingredients: Kola Nut, Black Tea, Cinnamon, Lemon Verbena, Ginger
Net weight is 60 grams, makes 20-24 servings or 3, 2 quarts pitchers
Brewing Instructions: For individual serving- Place one teaspoon of Farmhouse Kola in a tea ball or infuser, heat 8oz of water to 210 F or boiling, pour hot water in to container with tea, allow to steep for 5-10min (longer for a stronger flavor), sweeten to taste, we recommend Dark Brown Sugar.
For a 2 quart pitcheruse 2 &1/2 tablespoons of Farmhouse Kola to 1quart of boiling water, the easiest way is to place the loose tea directly into the water in the pot and bring the water to a boil, as soon as the water reaches the boiling point turn off heat, stir the mixture to ensure everything is full incorporated, remove pot from the hot surface and allow it to cool to a safe handling temperature, after it has cooled place a fine mesh strainer over your pitcher, pour your tea into strainer so that the water and not the tea is flowing into the pitcher, top your pitcher off with an additional quart of water and sweeten to taste.
