Tea-Vitalize: Cold-Brew Teas and Herbal Infusions to Refresh and Rejuvenate

by Mimi Kirk

Delicious teas to keep you hydrated and feeling young

Black, green, white, and oolong teas, as well as herbal infusions, have numerous health benefits, starting with hydration. Infused with fresh, vitamin- rich fruits, they become a fun and delicious way to increase your liquid consumption without turning to commercial drinks that may be high in calories and artificial additives. Cold brewing tea allows the leaves and other ingredients to slowly infuse the water and is, according to Mimi Kirk, the best way to achieve a smooth taste and extract the antioxidants and other benefits from the tea. For cold days or when you’re under the weather, her hot water infusions will warm and soothe.

In Tea-Vitalize, Kirk shares 70 recipes

Black Cold Brew Tea + Blackberries
Green Cold Brew Tea + Lavender + Lemon
Yerba Mate Cold Brew Infusion + Dried Orange + Mint
Rosemary Hot Water Infusion + Strawberries

Information about the health properties of each ingredient and gorgeous photography make Tea-Vitalize a resource readers will turn to again and again.

I must admit that I am not someone who is very up-to-date on the popularity of tea infusions, and I must admit that this lowered my enthusiasm somewhat for the material of the book, especially given the enthusiasm of the author regarding such matters. That said, there was much to appreciate about this book nonetheless and if you are fond of tea infusions there are a lot of options here that could very well end up to be very tasty and beneficial to you. I like tea and this book offers some variations on the cold brew “sun” tea that I happen to enjoy greatly. If you like tea and are open to adding various herbal items to it, this book could very well be up your alley.

This book is lacking tea latte recipes, if that's what you're looking for, but this is full of some wonderful different tea recipes and infusions. Some things are obvious, but you probably aren't doing them. I like the health notes of the different herbs, nicely arranged.

A great cookbook for tea lovers - a wide variety of recipes for teas and tisanes both hot and cold.
