What it is

Brewed tea concentrate is a liquid extract made by steeping tea leaves in hot water. The water is then removed, leaving a concentrated form of the tea's flavor and color. It is used to provide a strong tea base in various beverages.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use brewed tea concentrate to add a natural tea flavor and color to products like bottled iced teas and other ready-to-drink beverages. It allows for consistent flavor and easier handling compared to brewing tea from leaves during production.

Health notes

Brewed tea concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It contains compounds found naturally in tea, such as antioxidants. JECFA has evaluated tea extracts and set acceptable daily intakes. Evidence on the long-term health effects of consuming large amounts of tea concentrate is limited, but typical intake is not associated with adverse effects.

Allergen info

Brewed tea concentrate is not derived from any of the 9 major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
