Ice Chest Tea Recipe
Recipe Details:
- Preparation Time: 10 minutes
- Cooking Time: 5-7 minutes for tea steeping
- Total Time: 2 hours (including chilling time)
- Course: Beverage
- Cuisine: Fusion
- Yield: Approximately 4 servings
- Calories Per Serving: Approximately 50 calories
Ingredients:
Gather the following ingredients for your Ice Chest Tea recipe adventure:
- 4 tea bags (black or green, your choice)
- 4 cups of water
- 1/2 cup of honey or sugar (adjust to taste)
- Fresh mint leaves
- 1 lemon, sliced
- Ice cubes
Instructions:
Step 1: Brew The Tea
In a saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add the tea bags and let them steep for about 5-7 minutes. Remove the tea bags and allow the brewed tea to cool to room temperature.
Step 2: Sweeten The Deal
Once the tea has cooled, add honey or sugar to sweeten it to your liking. Stir until the sweetener is completely dissolved. This step allows you to tailor the sweetness to your personal preference.
Step 3: Minty Freshness
Take a handful of fresh mint leaves and give them a gentle crush to release their aromatic oils. Add the mint leaves to the tea and let them infuse their refreshing essence. This touch of mint will elevate your Ice Chest Tea to a whole new level.
Step 4: Citrus Burst
Slice a fresh lemon into rounds and add them to the tea. The citrusy kick from the lemon slices will add a zing that balances the sweetness, creating a harmonious flavor profile.
Step 5: Chill Out
Transfer the tea to a clean ice chest. This step not only chills the tea but also allows the flavors to meld together, creating a perfectly balanced beverage. Add ice cubes to enhance the refreshing experience.
Serve And Enjoy
Scoop the chilled Ice Chest Tea into glasses, garnish with additional mint leaves or lemon slices if desired, and voila! You now have a deliciously refreshing beverage to savor.
