STRAWBERRY ICED TEA

There is nothing better than a cool glass of iced tea of a warm day. I just loved how beautiful this Strawberry Iced Tea looked so I thought I'd share a tried and tested recipe with you...

Strawberry Iced Tea
2 cups whole frozen strawberries
32 fluid ounces, brewed tea, make hot then let cool
1/3 cup white sugar (amount can vary depending on desired sweetness)
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 punnet of fresh strawberries
mint leaves
ice

Serving: 5

1. Blend frozen strawberries in a food processor until smooth, then strain
2. Mix together pureed strawberries, tea, desired amount of sugar to taste, and lemon juice
3. Chill
4. Decorate and serve with a fresh strawberry (stem removed), ice and a sprig of mint
5. Enjoy!

  3. I would try a black or green tea. I believe I used Lipton (black tea). Boil water, brew tea 2-5 minutes (time will effect strength and color). Remove tea bags and let cool.
