Notes
- It's always a good idea to use an electric kettle with temperature control when making tea. Green tea shouldn't be steeped in boiling hot water, since it can make your tea bitter.
- Don't oversteep green tea in hot water since that can also make your tea bitter.
- The more you shake the iced tea, the more foam you’ll see on the surface. If you like a lot of foam, keep shaking it, about 40 times.
