Real iced tea is finally receiving the attention it deserves so we have decided to kick off our iced tea recipes with the simplest method going - the 'pour over' method with our delicious, caffeine-free Rosebud Lemonade blend.
'Pour over' simply means making a traditional hot tea brewed at double strength, which is then cooled in the fridge and served over ice. This method can be used to make iced brews out of any of our other fruit or herbal teas including Raspberry & Orange and Elderflower Punch.
Ingredients (Serves 4)
8 heaped tsps Rosebud Lemonade tea
1L 100°C water
Ice
Lemon slices
Lemon juice and sugar syrup (or honey/agarve) to taste
Method
- Steep the Rosebud Lemonade in 100°C water for 5 minutes or more. You can steep for longer to suit your tastes as this blend is purely herbal.
- Strain your brew and place it in the fridge to cool.
- Pour over a glass with some ice cubes and finish with lemon slices, lemon juice and either sugar syrup or honey to taste.
