Did you know that 84 per cent of tea consumed in the US is iced tea? It is!
You must be familiar with the ready-to-drink iced teas in the market today. But most of you might not know that these ready-to-drink teas are made out of tea waste.
If you ask us, iced tea is an easy drink to make at home.
WHAT YOU NEED:
- 2 and 1/4 cups water
- 6 bags Chamraj tea bags or 2 teaspoons Chamraj BOP tea leaves in a tea infuser
- 6 cups cold water
- For garnish, sugar, lemon wedges and mint sprigs
WHAT TO DO:
1. In a small saucepan, bring the 2-1/4 cups water to a gentle boil. Add the tea bags, immediately remove the saucepan from the heat and steep for 15 minutes.
2. Remove the tea bags. Don’t squeeze them as they might add bitterness to the drink.
3. Pour the tea into a glass pitcher. Add the 6 cups cold water and mix. Let the tea cool at room temperature and then refrigerate until cold.
4. Serve over ice, garnished with sugar, lemon wedges and mint sprigs.
