Irish Cream Liqueur dates to the 6th century when Irish Monks traveled to the Middle East and learned the art of distilling. Initially they were interested in making perfume - but being Irish, it took only a short while before they realized the process also worked for whiskey, or "Uisce Beatha" which in Gaelic means "Water of Life". The monks, who were also famed dairymen, found that blending their whiskey with fresh cream produced their well-known concoction. As we all know now in the 21st century, Irish Cream is a delicious drink on its own or as an addition to many great recipes. True to the spirit of the old monks we created this blend. It's great at breakfast. Top o' the morning to you!

Brewing Hot
Bring freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil. Place 1 teaspoon of tea for each cup into the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the teapot. Cover and let steep for 3-7 minutes according to taste (the longer the steeping time the stronger the tea). Even though milk and a dash of sugar help enhance the flavor character on this tea, it is perfectly acceptable to consume this tea straight-up.
Brewing Cold
(to make 1 liter/quart): Place 6 teaspoons of tea into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep for 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into your serving pitcher straining the leaves. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste. [A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to double the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water]. Please note that this tea may tend to go cloudy or milky when poured over ice; a perfectly normal characteristic of some high quality black teas and nothing to worry about!
