yay. it's finallly spring. which means we can start really enjoying iced teas again.
this little one i made on the weekend to go with the mini strawberry cheesecakes (see previous recipe post).
here's the recipe that i used for this hibiscus iced tea.
1 pot of brewed & then cooled heavenly hibiscus tea
2 cups of soda water
2 tbs maple syrup (or you could use honey or no sweetner if you are sweet enough already)
1 orange, sliced
1 lemon, sliced
ice, ice baby
basically brew your pot of tea, add your sweetner of choice and then allow to cool. i cool on the bench and then place in the fridge for an hour to chill.
mix all ingredients together and then serve. you could always add a bit of vodka if you are that way inclined.
