Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1 cup Fresh pineapple chunks
- 2 pieces Black tea bags
- 4 cups Hot water
- 2 tablespoons Honey (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lime juice
- 2 cups Ice cubes
- 4 sprigs Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a heatproof bowl or teapot, pour 4 cups of hot water over the black tea bags. Let steep for 5 minutes, then remove the tea bags and allow the tea to cool to room temperature.
In a blender, combine the sliced strawberries and pineapple chunks. Blend until smooth.
Strain the blended fruit mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large pitcher, pressing down with a spoon to extract as much juice as possible and discard the pulp.
Stir the brewed tea into the pitcher with the fruit juice. Add honey (if desired) and lime juice, and stir well to combine.
Add 2 cups of ice cubes to the pitcher and stir until thoroughly chilled.
Serve the Tropical Strawberry Tea in glasses over additional ice if desired, and garnish with mint leaves for a fresh touch.
