Sparkling Strawberry Watermelon Peach Iced Tea

  • Author: Ann

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups very hot (almost boiling) water
  • 4 family size strawberry watermelon herbal tea bags
  • 4 regular size herbal peach tea bags
  • Fresh or frozen strawberries, watermelon, peaches, orange or lemon wedges
  • Club soda (or sparkling water)
  • Optional: sweetener of choice or simple syrup

Instructions

  1. In a quart-size (heat safe) jar, add the hot water and tea bags. Let steep for 10 – 15 minutes, then add a bit of ice to cool it off.
  2. Add a few strawberries, watermelon chunks and/or peach slices. If you like, take a couple wedges of fresh orange or lemon, squeeze in the juices and then put the wedges into the jar. Fill the jar the rest of the way with water.
  3. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour or up to several days to let the fruit flavors infuse into the tea concentrate and the tea flavor fully develop.
  4. When ready to drink, add ice (or frozen watermelon chunks!) to a glass, then fill half way with the tea concentrate and the rest of the way with club soda (or sparkling water). Garnish with fruit and fresh mint (if desired) and sweeten if desired. Enjoy!

Notes

If  you are using regular sized tea bags, 1 family size bag of tea = 4 one-cup size tea bags.
