Posh Jasmine Iced Tea Recipes

Steps:

• Bring 10 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan. Place tea bags in a large heatproof container. Add boiling water, and steep for 3 minutes. Remove tea bags. Let cool completely.
• Meanwhile, bring sugar and remaining 1/2 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring, until sugar dissolves. Let cool completely.
• Stir together tea and 3/4 cup simple syrup, plus more if needed, depending on desired sweetness. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Divide among ice-filled glasses.

Steps:

• In a large pitcher combine the tea and water. Mix the sugar or honey with about a cup of hot water so that it dissolves and will mix with the room temperature water. Add the sugar/ hot water mixture to the pitcher. Put the pitcher in the refrigerator (preferably before you go to sleep) and let the tea leaves soak until morning (9-12 hours). Add lemon to taste and then pour the tea through a strainer so as to catch the tea leaves before serving.

Steps:

• Bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Remove from heat and add 4 bags of black tea. Let steep for 5 minutes, then discard bags. Stir in 3 tablespoons Truvia® natural sweetener spoonable* and 2 teaspoons lemon juice. Refrigerate until chilled and serve over ice, if desired.
• *or 10 packets Truvia® natural sweetener

Steps:

• Bring 4 cups water to a simmer in a saucepan. Remove from the heat, add the tea bags and let steep for 8 minutes. Remove the tea bags and stir in the honey. Let cool.
• Add the sweetened tea to a pitcher along with 2 cups ice and another 4 cups water; stir. Add the sliced kumquats (if using), key limes and lemon. Pour into glasses over ice and garnish with mint.

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a saucepan, add the tea leaves and remove pan from the heat. Gently stir the tea leaves to submerge them in the water. Let the tea steep for 5 minutes, or until it turns a brilliant orange and has a strong taste with no bitterness. Pour the tea through a coffee filter or fine mesh strainer into a pitcher. Add the sugar to the hot tea and stir well to dissolve completely. Set aside to cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate until ready to serve, or for up to 1 week.
• To serve, fill tall glasses with crushed ice, add tea to fill about 3/4 of each glass, then pour about 1/4 cup of evaporated milk or half-and-half over the ice in each glass. Serve immediately.
