  • Instant & Complete Solubility: No residue or settling. Dissolves rapidly in hot or cold water (above 25°C), simplifying production of clear tea beverages, milk teas, and liquid formulations without filtration steps.
  • Superior Process Efficiency: Replaces messy, time-consuming brewing processes. Enables precise automated dosing, reduces production time, and eliminates tea leaf waste, leading to significant cost savings.
  • Dual Functionality: Serves as both a primary flavor/color ingredient and a source of natural, functional compounds, acting as a clean-label Natural Colorant and Antioxidants Raw Material in one.

Step-by-Step Formulation Guide

To successfully integrate Instant Black Tea Powder into your manufacturing process, follow these steps:

  1. Pre-Production Solubility Test:
    • Test solubility in your specific water base or solvent at your intended production temperature. For cold-fill processes, prepare a concentrated solution with warm water first, then cool and dilute.
  2. Determine Optimal Usage Rate:
    • Clear Ready-to-Drink (RTD) Tea: 0.1% - 0.3% (1-3 g/L)
    • Milk Tea / Bubble Tea Base: 0.5% - 1.5% (5-15 g/L)
    • Functional Food / Bakery Fillings: 0.5% - 2.0% by weight
    • Dietary Supplement Powders: 1% - 5%
    • Skincare Serums (for antioxidant effect): 0.1% - 1.0%
  3. Manufacturing Incorporation:
    • For Liquid Systems: Add powder slowly under high-shear agitation to prevent clumping. Ensure water temperature is >25°C for rapid dissolution.
    • For Dry Blends: Mix thoroughly with other dry ingredients (e.g., sugar, Food Grade Trehalose as a stabilizer, or Vitamins and Minerals) using a ribbon blender for uniform distribution.
  4. Final Product Stability & QA Check:
    • Conduct accelerated shelf-life testing. Monitor for color stability, flavor consistency, and any potential sedimentation over time.
    • Verify that the final product's tea polyphenol content meets your target specification through analytical testing.

Application Scenarios

  • RTD Teas & Functional Beverages: The primary application for instant iced tea, bottled tea drinks, energy drinks, and enhanced water. Easily combined with Freeze Dried Fruit Powder for natural flavor and color variations.
  • Tea-Based Milk Drinks & Bubble Tea: Provides a consistent, strong tea flavor and color base for global milk tea and boba tea chains, ensuring product uniformity across locations.
  • Health & Wellness Supplements: Used in capsule, tablet, or powder formulations targeting antioxidant support, energy, and metabolism, often blended with other Antioxidants Raw Materials.
  • Food Industry: Imparts tea flavor and natural color to ice cream, yogurt, baked goods, confectionery (chocolates, gummies), and savory sauces or marinades.
  • Cosmetics & Skincare: Incorporated into creams, serums, and masks for its antioxidant and mild astringent properties. Can be synergistically formulated with Sodium Hyaluronate for hydrating and protecting skin.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: How does the taste of instant powder compare to freshly brewed tea?

A: Our advanced processing is specifically designed to preserve the authentic flavor profile. In blind taste tests, beverages made with our high-quality instant powder are often indistinguishable from those made with a carefully controlled brew of premium loose-leaf tea, but with perfect consistency.

Q2: Can this powder be used in completely cold-process applications?

A: Yes, for 100% cold processing, we recommend a two-step method: First, create a concentrated "tea stock" by dissolving the powder in a small amount of warm water (e.g., 50-60°C). Once fully dissolved, this stock can be chilled and added to the cold batch. The powder itself requires water above 25°C for initial dissolution.

Q3: What is the difference between this and green tea extract powder?

A: The key difference is processing. Black tea is fully fermented (oxidized), which develops theaflavins and thearubigins, giving it a maltier, stronger flavor and darker color. Green tea is unfermented, preserving catechins like EGCG, and has a more vegetal, astringent taste. Both are excellent Natural Antioxidants but offer different flavor profiles and bioactive compound mixes.

Q4: Do you offer samples for R&D testing?

A: Absolutely. We provide free samples (typically 100-500g) to qualified business customers for evaluation, lab testing, and prototyping. Please contact our sales team with your company details and intended application.

Q5: What are the standard packaging options and MOQ?

A: Standard packaging is in 20 kg or 25 kg food-grade polyethylene bags inside cartons or fiber drums. Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) is 10 kg for sample orders and 100 kg for production orders. Custom packaging and smaller MOQs for new partnerships can be discussed.
