In Japan, iced tea is very popular on hot summer days, but hot tea is also recommended as drinking too many cold beverages can weaken the digestive system and make you sick (for those familiar with Japanese, this is called 夏バテ [なつばて] natsubate).
The appeal of tea this season lies in the fact that you can enjoy different flavors by varying its preparation: cold-brewed, ice-brewed, or hot-brewed, of course.
Savor it in all its forms!
暑いとついつい冷たいものばかり口にしてしまいますが、夏バテ予防には温かいお茶がオススメです。 水出し、氷出し、お湯抽出などいろいろな飲み方で異なる味わいを楽しめるのも日本茶の魅力です。
