Ingredients
-
2 Lemon Ginger Rosé Tea Sachets
-
16 oz Hot Water (just below boiling)
-
1 tsp Honey or Agave (optional, for a hint of sweetness)
-
Fresh Garnish: A slice of lemon or a sprig of mint
-
Ice
Brewing Instructions
-
The Concentrated Steep: Place 2 tea sachets into a 16 oz Mason jar. Pour in hot water, but only fill the jar halfway. Steeping in less water creates a "concentrate," ensuring the flavor stays strong once you add ice.
-
The Wait: Let it steep for 5 to 7 minutes. Because this is a herbal tea, you don’t have to worry about it becoming bitter like green or black tea.
-
Sweeten (Optional): While the tea is still warm, stir in your honey or agave so it dissolves completely.
-
The Big Chill: Remove the sachets (remember, they are compostable!). Fill the rest of the jar with ice cubes.
-
The Finishing Touch: Garnish with a fresh lemon wheel to enhance the citrus notes. Screw on your Silicone Drinking Lid, insert a Stainless Steel Straw, and enjoy!
Pro-Tip: The "Cold Brew" Method
If you have more time, you can cold-brew this tea to extract a smoother, subtler flavor. Simply put 2 sachets in a jar of cold water and leave it in the fridge overnight. In the morning, you’ll have a perfectly chilled, deep pink infusion ready to go!
