How to make Lucky's Jasmine Ice American? Can I drink jasmine tea with coffee?

Recently, some Rui has launched a new series of jasmine products, and then a certain star has launched jasmine coffee. for a while, it seems that everywhere is filled with this kind of white flowers, which is also coveted.

But as a popular science account, Qianjie will not spend money on "blind test". We have always advocated the concept of "do-it-yourself, adequate food and clothing". Moreover, the materials used here can be bought every day, so it must be easy to make a cup. So let's try matching jasmine with the well-known iced American coffee today and see how it works.

How to choose coffee beans?

In order to make the jasmine taste good in American style, Qianjie believes that we should not be careless in choosing jasmine tea and coffee. Considering that jasmine drinks are light and elegant, Qianjie recommends using medium or deep-roasted coffee beans, which makes it easier for us to capture the flavor of jasmine and coffee at the same time.

If you prefer fruity, you can give priority to beans with flavors that point to berries, apricots and ripe fruits, such as Zakui, Chaka, Alo extracted SOE and jasmine tea. If you pursue a thicker coffee flavor, you might as well give priority to coffee with preserved fruit, fermented wine, melon, and confectionery descriptors, such as strawberry sugar, Rose Valley, Mozart and Hizzao can all show fruity notes in Italian concentration without losing a mellow caramel feel.

However, if our espresso beans are only overroasted and want to make refreshing jasmine iced American coffee, Qianjie recommends only a single concentration, because it is not easy to cover up the fragrance of flowers in the tea soup.

After some surfing and learning, Qianjie summed up three different methods of jasmine iced American coffee, namely: buying drinks, making hot water quickly, and cold extracted tea, which you can choose. The products made in Qianjie today are sugar-free versions. Sweet-loving friends can add an appropriate amount of 10-15g syrup according to their own taste. )

Buy beverage production now

When we adhere to quickly make a cup to satisfy our mouth addiction, directly buying ready-made drinks is undoubtedly the most simple and convenient operation, and there are many products of jasmine tea on the market, and most of them are not expensive, not only with and without sugar, some can also choose shades, so it can be said that it is easy to make a simple version of jasmine iced American coffee at home.

Qianjie first tried to make sugar-free jasmine tea with oriental leaves. It tastes good alone, the fragrance of jasmine is relatively weak, and it is compatible with coffee (it is not easy to roll over), and it is the easiest to buy.

Hot water bubbles quickly

Those who often drink scented tea should know that tea brewed with jasmine can taste the freshness of flowers better than many prefabricated drinks, and the better the effect of making fancy coffee. Therefore, for those friends who are in a hurry to go out and happen to have dry jasmine or jasmine tea at home all the year round, Qianjie suggests using hot water to soak and then combine.

The steps of preparing tea soup are not complicated. First prepare an incubator (ordinary teapot is also OK), put in 1-1.5 grams of jasmine, pour 160ml into hot water and soak for 4-5 minutes, then filter out the jasmine.

Cold extracted tea

Qianjie has mentioned in many articles that compared with hot water brewing, the extraction efficiency of coffee in cold water is very low, and there are fewer interference factors, and it releases mostly small molecular substances, so it usually does not account for a large proportion of bitter rhyme and is not sharp in acidity. The taste will be relatively lighter and more round, as is the case with cold extracted tea.

For convenience, Qianjie uses the common jasmine green tea bag on the market, the proportion is a bag of jasmine tea bag corresponding to 100g pure water, so the cold extraction tea jasmine aroma will be more obvious. Just like the steps of cold extraction, first find a spacious container that can be sealed, put 2 jasmine tea bags, then inject 200g normal temperature water, seal and refrigerate for 3 hours, and then directly pull out the filter bag after soaking.

Production steps

The first step is to prepare a clean cup with a larger capacity, then add 2 to 3 ice cubes (80g) and pour in bottled jasmine tea until the cup is 8 minutes full.

In the second step, Qianjie selected Ethiopia's Huakui 8.0 SOE coffee beans and extracted double concentrated beans according to the formula commonly used in stores, that is, 20 grams of powder extracted 40 grams of coffee solution in 31 seconds, and gently drenched on the surface. (the ratio of coffee to jasmine tea is about 1:5)

As the above jasmine tea is mainly fragrant, the overall taste is light, it is not easy to snatch the aroma of the coffee itself as a base, coupled with the sweet and sour citrus fruits shown by Huakui SOE and the strong taste of Italian concentration, so that the whole cup of jasmine iced American coffee not only has the glycol of coffee, but also has a refreshing flower and fruit flavor.

Finally, it should be noted that as the ice is quickly melted with a hot tea soup, which will dilute the entire base, it is best to adjust the ratio of coffee to jasmine tea at 1:4, that is, 40g concentrate corresponds to 160g freshly brewed tea, while adding 20g / 30g ice cube or using an ice cup to keep the coffee cold.
