Review on ๐Ÿต USA-Made 2 Quart Takeya Iced Tea Maker with Patented Flash Chill Technology in Blueberry Shade by Bob Boan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works well - I make a lot of cloned tea and it's very easy to use.

I like Arizona Green Tea and Argo Ginger Twist Tea, but because I drink so much iced tea, shopping at the store wasn't good for my budget. So I adapted copycat recipes to get the tastiest homemade versions, and now I can easily make a week's worth of tea with the Takeya Ice Tea Maker in a short amount of time with no additional ingredients and no over-brewing. It used to be more difficult. For me, I make my clone tea recipes as I had to boil two pots of hot water in a kettle and then leave the water in the bowl (monitor with a food thermometer) until the water cooled to the proper brewing temperature before using the tea put on bags . Meanwhile, in my VitaMix, I've added sugar, spices, and lime juice, then poured in the brewed tea and mixed before pouring it into pots or tea glasses for one serving (I have more than enough from all the stores). tea) and set in the fridge to cool before enjoying my clone iced tea. Takuya along with tea (now I can use better and cheaper loose leaf tea) making it easier to brew at the right temperature. The tea itself, fitting into an easy to clean and use infuser means I can brew, blend and chill all in one dish. So much less cleaning, I get a workout shaking Takuya (bonus) and I can drink my tea right after making it instead of waiting for it to cool in the fridge. Plus, I can pour a batch of tea into my collection of disposable tea glasses and quickly make a second batch using the same tea while it's still strong without wasting time or doing any extra work. I don't know how or what Fast Flash Technology actually is, but it works well, cleans up easily and makes my clone iced tea recipe easy to make.
