Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces black tea bags
- 4 cups water
- 1.5 cups fresh raspberries
- 0.5 cups lemon juice
- 0.5 cups granulated sugar
- 2 cups ice cubes
- 4 slices lemon slices (optional, for garnish)
- 4 sprigs mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Bring 4 cups of water to a gentle boil in a medium-sized saucepan.
Add the black tea bags to the boiling water, remove the saucepan from heat, and let it steep for 5 minutes.
Remove the tea bags and allow the tea to cool slightly.
In a blender, combine the fresh raspberries, lemon juice, and granulated sugar. Blend until smooth.
Strain the raspberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large pitcher to remove the seeds.
Pour the slightly cooled tea into the pitcher with the raspberry and lemon mixture. Stir well to combine.
Refrigerate the tea for at least 30 minutes to chill (optional, if you prefer it extra cold).
To serve, fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the tea over the ice.
Garnish each glass with a slice of lemon and a sprig of mint, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Frosty Raspberry Lemon Tea!
