Herbal Iced Tea Cooler
So this is definitely an Ina inspiration. In her recipe she uses a combination of Red Zinger, Lemon Zinger and Apple Juice, but the Lemon Zinger felt too abrasive for me. I tried it with Mandarin Tangerine Zinger and changed the ratios a little and now it suits me perfectly. This is the perfect light drink on a hot day. It is so refreshing. To add some color, slice up some oranges and throw them in.
I realize these first two entries aren't so exciting, but good stuff is coming!
Herbal Iced Tea Cooler
Ingredients:
4 Red Zinger Tea Bags (Celestial Seasonings brand)
4 Mandarin Tangerine Zinger Tea Bags (Celestial Seasonings brand)
4 cups water
4 Cups good Apple Juice
1 cup cold filtered water (optional)
Boil the 4 cups of water and steep the 8 teabags for about 10 minutes (You don't want them to steep too much longer than that or the tea can become bitter).
Pour your tea into a glass pitcher. Add your apple juice and the 1 cup of cold water (optional). Stir and enjoy!
