Ingredients
- 1 cup Dried strawberries
- 1 cup Loose black tea
- 2 tablespoons Dried lemon peel
- 1 tablespoon Dried hibiscus flowers
- 1 Cinnamon stick (optional)
Instructions
Prepare the dried strawberries by ensuring they are thinly sliced and fully dehydrated. If needed, dehydrate fresh strawberries in an oven or dehydrator.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the dried strawberries, loose black tea, dried lemon peel, and dried hibiscus flowers.
If using a cinnamon stick, break it into small pieces and add to the bowl for added depth of flavor.
Gently toss the mixture to evenly distribute ingredients.
Transfer the strawberry tea mix into an airtight container for storage. Store in a cool, dry place.
To prepare the tea, add 1 tablespoon of the mix to 8 ounces of boiling water. Steep for 5-7 minutes, strain, and enjoy. Adjust steeping time for a stronger or milder brew.
