MINT SWEET ICED TEA



Mint Sweet Iced Tea image

All the mint sweet tea recipes I've come across call for fresh mint, and that can be tough to find sometimes without breaking the bank. I've come by this recipe after quite a bit of experimentation, and the great part is that it can be made just about anywhere, as long as you have the ability to cool the tea back down after brewing!

ICED SWEET MINT TEA

If you enjoy having a soothing, refreshing glass of iced tea in the summertime, I hope you will try my version of sweet mint tea. I grew up drinking mint tea and still enjoy it so very much today. If you don't care for sugar in your tea, just leave it out, it will still be just as satisfying.

ICED MINT TEA



Iced Mint Tea image

A summer favourite, when your garden is overgrown with mint. Easy to make, and delicious! Cook time is cooling time. Original recipe from Homemakers Magazine had 1/4 cup lime juice, but after Acadia's review, I adjusted it, as I agree that is too much and is overwhelming. I think that lemon juice compliments the taste more, as well. For a vegan version, use agave nectar!

Tips:

  • Use fresh mint leaves. Fresh mint leaves provide the best flavor for iced tea. If you can't find fresh mint, you can use dried mint leaves, but be sure to use half the amount as you would fresh mint.
  • Steep the tea for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors of the tea and mint to meld together.
  • Use a sweetener of your choice. You can use sugar, honey, agave nectar, or another sweetener to taste.
  • Serve the tea over ice. You can also add a garnish of fresh mint leaves or a slice of lemon or lime.
  • Enjoy the tea chilled. Iced tea is best enjoyed chilled. You can store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
