Rosy Lemon Balm Iced Tea
Herbal Teas or Tisanes are prepared as an infusion and can be made from a single herb or a blend of herbs. They can be drunk as a hot or cold enjoyable beverage or simply for the herbs’ medicinal effect.
My favourite Iced Tea recipe for summer is a mix of fragrant Rose, Lemon Balm, Rosella and Raspberry Leaf! Check out the recipe below.
There's nothing quite like a cooling iced tea on a hot summers day - and if it has the added herby benefits, well yummo that's a bonus!
Directions
1. In a bowl, mix the dried herbs together. This can then be stored in an airtight container, in a cool dark spot for future use.
2. To make Iced Tea that serves 4, place 2tbsp of the dried herb mix into a teapot and cover with 4 cups of boiling water.
3. Let it infuse for 5-10 minutes.
4. Pour straight into a bottle, and let it cool slightly before putting it in the fridge to chill.
5. Once chilled, serve in a glass with ice and couple of slices of lime.
6. If you like it a bit sweeter and fruitier add fresh peach slices or even some peach juice.
