FeedsReplying to a comment on Iced Tea.. sort of
It's true! The optimal brewing time for black tea is 3-5 minutes, 2-3 for green tea, 1-3 for white tea. Some people swear that rooibos and mate taste better if you let them steep for 10+ minutes but I think it's awful after 5 or so.
In hot water, all the caffeine leaches out in the first 15 seconds of brewing the tea, so you're not making it more caffeinated by letting it sit longer, either.
