For anyone looking to try this - while they sell pre-bottled mugicha [1], I highly recommend making your own from tea bags [2].

It's incredibly easy to make - just add cold water and let it sit in the fridge for a couple hours. It also tastes so much better (in my opinion), is much cheaper, and is more environmentally friendly.

A big 2L thermos filled with mugicha and ice is a great way to stay cool in the summer.

It’s a well-known East Asian trope but I still reminisce about going to going to my grandmas house in summer and opening the fridge to drink some home made ice cold mugicha!

Even better to avoid the tea bags which are full of microplastics (though they will impart less when unheated)
