Directions
A Most Excellent Raspberry Iced Tea, I heard a lot about Raspberry Iced Tea during ZWT6 When the dust settled, I went in search While they all look great, I only have loose tea and Earl Grey bagged to take to work So I started experimenting (uh oh) used green tea because I thought that black tea would overpower the delicate raspberries If anyone makes this with black tea, please leave a comment as to which one & how it turned out! Despite the addition of sugar, this is not a sweet tea I listed OTHER ADDITIONS because I thought of many other flavors I could add – not necessarily all at once – but haven’t gotten around to actually doing it ‘Cooking time’ is cooling/steeping time I hope you enjoy!, used tea bags instead of loose tea and did add a few lemon slices Easy to make and a nice change from plain iced tea Thank you for sharing!
