7. B.W. Cooper’s Iced Brew Tea
Our tea is made the old fashioned way– it’s brewed!
It’s this simple… Cooper’s proprietary leaf blend is placed in a tank. Then
1,000 gallons of hot water is poured over the tea leaves. The tea then sits and
brews. After brewing, the tea leaves are removed and the result is B.W.
Cooper’s delicious Iced Brew Tea. Pretty straightforward.
What’s special though is how easy we’ve made it for you to then provide that
delicious tea to your customers. In order to maintain the consistency of the
flavor, we developed a special way of removing excess water from the tea and
turning it into a concentrated brew. We put it in a bag and send it to you where
you hook it up to a system that adds the water back at the perfect ratio. Your
staff never has to brew tea and doesn’t have to worry about throwing out old
tea. Oxygen doesn’t get into the dispensing system so the tea stays fresh.
You may have seen some old school “teas” that arrive in a bag and don’t taste
very good. That’s because they contain artificial flavors, artificial colors and
other additives. Have no fear! Our tea has none of those things. We’re just
real, brewed tea packaged for the 21st century.
