Making DIY loaded teas

Raspberry green tea is a common berry base for homemade loaded teas. It dissolves in cold water and the strength is set by the spoonful, so you control both the tea flavor and the caffeine in each drink — something tea bags and pre-mixed concentrates do not allow. At about 20 servings, one packet is enough to test several recipes before buying a full pouch. See how to choose a loaded tea base and the Loaded Tea Zone for recipes.

Common questions

How many cups does one sample packet make?
About 20 at the recommended 1/4 teaspoon. The full-size 4.5 oz pouch makes about 200.

Is raspberry green tea sweet?
No. There is no added sugar, so the raspberry comes through as bright fruit flavor against bittersweet green tea rather than as sweetness. Add sugar or honey to taste.

How much caffeine is in a serving?
Approximately 35 mg per 1/4 teaspoon, roughly a third of a cup of drip coffee.

How do I make raspberry iced tea?
Dissolve in a little hot water first, then top with cold water and ice for the cleanest result. If mixing straight into cold water, stir vigorously or use a frother.

Why does instant green tea not turn bitter?
Bitterness in green tea usually comes from over-steeping or water that is too hot. Instant tea powder is already extracted, so there is no steeping step and no way to over-brew it.

Ready for the full size? Shop the Raspberry Green Instant Tea 4.5 oz pouch, which makes about 200 servings.

How to make

Our tea powder is concentrated, requiring just a small amount to make your tea. Use 1/4 tsp for one serving (8 fl oz) or 2 teaspoons to make a full 64 fl oz pitcher. For a gallon (128 fl oz), we recommend starting with 4 tsp of Waka tea powder. From there, feel free to adjust the flavor to suit your taste!

Subtle flavor-but perfect

I love raspberry, and green tea so this was a perfect combo. The raspberry is subtle but just enough! I might even like this separately without putting in my loaded tea.
