Bored with plain iced tea? Pump up the flavour (think glass jarred flavoured tea...) and enjoy honey-sweetened iced tea all summer long!

Ingredients
  

  • 1-2 fruity tea bags Celestial Seasonings Peach Passion is our fave
  • 1 black tea bag or green or mint tea
  • 1 quart boiling water
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • ¼ cup honey or sugar no honey for babies!!
  • 2 fat pinches sea salt

Instructions
 

  • In a 2 quart canning jar or other heat proof container, place tea bags, salt, lemon juice, and honey.
  • Add hot tap water to the 1 quart mark.
  • Give the tea a little stir and let it sit for 10-15 minutes.
  • Remove the tea bags.
  • Fill the remainder of the jar with cold water and pop in the fridge until chilled through.

Notes

  • If using loose leaf tea, 1 teaspoon equals on tea bag on average. If it's coarse/bulky loose leaf, double the amount used. (Like hibiscus is bulky vs. my black tea is a more fine chop.)
