Japanese Tea Workshops

Japanese Tea Workshops: Cold Brews & Creative Infusions

Chill out with Japanese loose-leaf teas in this refreshing summer workshop! You’ll learn how to make mizudashi (水出し, cold brew) and kōridashi (氷出し, ice brew), two traditional, no-heat methods to steep tea that bring out new flavours and aromas in your cup.

We’ll taste three teas brewed hot and cold to explore how temperature brings out different flavours and aromas. You’ll also be inspired by non-alcoholic tea mixology ideas using fruits, herbs, and more, perfect for summer entertaining or everyday sipping.

Whether you're a tea lover or want to level up your iced tea game, this workshop will leave you cooled, quenched, and creatively stirred.
