Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Black tea bags
- 1.5 cups Pineapple juice
- 2 pieces Hibiscus tea bags
- 4 cups Hot water
- 0.25 cups Sugar
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 1 cup Guava nectar
- 2 cups Ice cubes
- 10 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
- 4 slices Sliced lime (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a medium saucepan or kettle.
Steep the black tea bags and hibiscus tea bags in the hot water for 5 minutes. Remove the tea bags and discard them.
While the tea is still warm, stir in the sugar until it dissolves completely.
Allow the tea mixture to cool to room temperature, or speed up the process by refrigerating it for 15–20 minutes.
In a large pitcher, combine the cooled tea, pineapple juice, guava nectar, and lime juice. Stir well to blend the flavors.
Add the ice cubes to the pitcher to chill the tea further, or pour the tea over glasses filled with ice cubes.
Optional: Garnish with fresh mint leaves and lime slices before serving.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Tickled Pink Tropical Island Iced Tea!
