Mint Iced Tea

Food.


I felt the need to share this quick mint iced tea recipe with you because it makes so much sense and I never thought to do it. I always just thought to brew with fresh mint, until now.  I am a huge fan of mint-iced tea, especially the Steaz brand.  I haven’t been able to find that specific flavor in my local food store and have been craving the fresh flavor, especially with the weather getting warmer.  So when I saw this recipe, I knew it needed to be made immediately.


When brewing fresh tea, take a tea bag of regular tea (your choice) and two tea bags of mint herbal tea. Brew them with about 5 cups of hot water then let cool.  Try not to steep the tea bags more than 10 minutes or it may bitter. You can sweeten as you prefer, but I love it just as is. Add your sweetener when the tea is warm so the sugar dissolves and disperses evenly. 


It's seriously easy and can be done in time for you to sit outside in the sun.   So good, so easy and just in time for the warmer spring and summer months.
