]]> Comment on How long can i store green tea in the fridge? by cazort http://greentea-blog.com/66/how-long-can-i-store-green-tea-in-the-fridge/#comment-274 cazort Wed, 22 Jun 2011 19:54:23 +0000 http://greentea-blog.com/66/how-long-can-i-store-green-tea-in-the-fridge/#comment-274 The antioxidants in tea do start to break down after the tea is brewed. This is why bottled iced teas have much less in the way of antioxidants. It's more of an issue though with bottled teas you buy in the store. I wrote an article that gives some explanation and cites sources: http://ratetea.net/topic/bottled-tea/4/ Refrigerating tea does not cause anything in the tea to deteriorate--if anything, it preserves the antioxidants in the tea for longer, and keeps micro-organisms from growing in the tea. This is because at lower temperatures, chemical reactions are slowed. It will keep brewed tea healthier and fresher for longer than if you were to leave the tea out at room temperature. P.S. the other person posting is also giving good advice about brewing, green tea usually comes out better if you don't use boiling water with it, but rather, use slightly cooler water, I usually use 180F water, maybe as low as 160F or as high as 190F for some teas. This is the range where small bubbles are first starting to form if you boil it in a pan on the stove. I also have a page with more tips on brewing tea: http://ratetea.net/topic/brewing-tea/6/ Good luck! The antioxidants in tea do start to break down after the tea is brewed.
