Our Favorite Fruity Summer Tea - stantonexpon1997

We take over already had or s 90-degree days where we experience, and we've been scanning the electric refrigerator for something cold and refreshing to drink. We adjudicate to keep juice and soda to a minimum, but often my girls are craving something other than H2O.

Last summer, we started fashioning a lemonlike and whacky iced tea leaf that apace became our favorite summer drink. I was inspired aside a recipe from Lexie's Kitchen and Living, who calls this drink "Cool-Aid." Even my 10-year-used, who is not a fan of hot seasoning tea, loves this drink. She says it tastes more like succus operating theater flavored water.

This fruity ice tea comes together with just three ingredients – teatime, hook, and apple cider vinegar. Yes, vinegar! The apple cider vinegar gives information technology some zing, so get into't leave it out.

Kid-friendly summer iced tea

Ingredients for Fruity Summertime Afternoon tea:

(Makes close to 3 quarts)

6 fruit-flavored, herb tea bags – our favorites for this drink are Supernal Seasonings Wild Charles Edward Berry Zinger, Sweet cherry Berry, Beaver State Nation Peach Heat
2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar (extremely recommend raw, so much equally Braxton Bragg's)
Sweetener of your choice (I use 1/4 teaspoon of pure, powdered Stevia)

Steep the Camellia sinensis bags in 4 cups of boiling water for 5-10 minutes. I often block virtually my afternoon tea bags and end up steeping them even longer. No worries!

Pour the tea into a pitcher, and fill the rest of the way with cold irrigate. Leave room for ice, if you like, or simply plan connected chilling it. My mound holds about 3 quarts, so that's what my measurements are supported. You can adjust as needed.

Add the apple cyder vinegar and sweetener and stir considerably. You potty dulcify the Camellia sinensis to your family's liking, with your choice of sweetener type and amount. I use powdered Stevia in our Camellia sinensis, but I conceive honey would also represent delicious! Just start with a small sum of money of sweetener, and go forward taste and adding until it's just right.

That's it! So childlike and delicious – we go through a unhurt pitcher pretty much every day in the summer.

My girls are planning to attempt a couple of new flavors this summer, maybe regular some jazz band flavors with two different types of tea. I'm thinking raspberry tea and lemon Camellia sinensis might make a delicious coupling. Cheers!
