Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 4 cups water
- 4 tea bags (use your favorite!)
- 2 lemons, one for juicing, one for slicing
- 4 strawberries, sliced
- 5 mint leaves
- 4 tablespoons favorite sweetener like agave nectar or honey (totally optional)
Instruction
- Bring 4 cups of water to a boil.
- When it’s done boiling, remove the pot from the heat and add your tea bags.
- Allow the tea bags to steep in the water for about 10 minutes. Since I’m adding additional flavors like lemon and strawberry, I like to make sure the tea is strong enough so it still shines through 🙂
- Remove the bags and add the tea to the pitcher.
- Squeeze the juice from a lemon and strain it into the pitcher as well.
- Slice the strawberries and remaining lemon.
- Add them to the pitcher with the mint.
- Place the pitcher in fridge for about three hours, or until chilled.
- I always leave it unsweetened so I can offer both sweetened and unsweetened versions to friends.
- If you want it sweetened, just stir the agave in with the rest of the ingredients and chill.
- Stir everything up and pour!
