Enjoy this refreshingly bold and flavorful shaken iced tea, featuring bright notes of citrus and cooling peppermint. Not only is this tea fun to make (and shake!), it’s also caffeine-free for the kids. Honey rounds out the tart Meyer lemon flavor, but it’s entirely optional.
Ingredients
2 tea bags Stash Meyer Lemon
8-10 mint leaves
8 oz hot water (recommended at 190-210 °F)
3-4 tsp honey (or added to taste)
14 oz ice
Directions
Put 2 tea bags of Stash Meyer Lemon herbal tea and mint in a small pitcher. Add hot water and steep for 3 minutes. Gently muddle tea bags and mint for about 1 minute during the steeping; be careful not to break the tea bags!
Once the tea is done, remove the tea bags and add honey to taste. Stir well to combine.
Fill a shaker about two-thirds full with ice. Pour the tea and mint leaves into the shaker, put the lid on, and shake well until frothy! Pour into a tall glass and serve.
