Ingredients:
- 10 heaping tsp. of Steepologie's Watermelon Madness Tea blend
- ice cubes or crushed ice
- 1/2 melon, diced (chilled or frozen)
- 2-3 sprigs of mint
- 1 lemon or lime
- 2 cups of sparkling water
- 3-4 tsp. Belgian Beets Rock Sugar (optional)
Instructions:
Steep the Watermelon Madness Tea tea blend with 4 1/4 cups of boiling water and let steep for at least 15 minutes. Pour the tea into a jug filled with ice and leave it to cool completely. Mix the melon cubes, mint leaves and the sliced lemons or lime, add everything to the cooled tea and top it off with sparkling water. A wonderful summertime refreshment!
Our highlight for a cold punch: Serve the iced tea in a hollowed out watermelon. Spike it!
Variation:
Refine the tea with rosemary and tonic water instead of sparkling water and mint. Gin lovers can also conjure up a fruity gin tonic from this iced tea.
