Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Drink Recipes     Cocktail Recipes

Yield Makes about 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 cups boiling water
8 teaspoons loose English breakfast tea (or 8 tea bags)
1/2 cup sugar
Crushed ice, for serving
1/2 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Pour water over tea, and steep for 5 to 7 minutes. Strain. Bring tea and sugar to a boil in a saucepan. Let cool. To serve, pour 1/2 cup tea over crushed ice in 8 glasses, and then top each with 1 tablespoon cream.

Tips:

  • Use loose-leaf white tea for the best flavor. If you don't have loose-leaf tea, you can use tea bags, but you may need to adjust the steeping time.
  • Steep the tea for the recommended time. If you steep the tea for too long, it will become bitter.
  • Sweeten the tea to taste. You can use sugar, honey, or another sweetener of your choice.
  • Garnish the tea with fresh black currants or a lemon slice. This will add a pop of color and flavor.
  • Serve the tea chilled. You can chill the tea in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight.
