BLUEBERRY-LEMON ICED TEA RECIPE

Steps:

• Bring 1 (16-oz.) package frozen blueberries and 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice to a boil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and pour through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a bowl, using back of a spoon to squeeze out juice. Discard solids. Wipe saucepan clean.
• Bring 4 cups water to a boil in same saucepan; add 3 family-size tea bags, and let stand 5 minutes. Remove and discard tea bags. Stir in 3/4 cup sugar and blueberry juice mixture. Pour into a pitcher; cover and chill 1 hour. Serve over ice.

HOW TO MAKE INFUSED COLD BREW TEA

Steps:

• Prepare all the dry leaves, berries, or herbs you plan to infuse. In our case, it is lemon, peppermint, lavender, and berries. Prepare a clean mason jar with the lid for each of the flavors.
• Place your dry teas into the mason jar or any glass jar. Each of the herbs should have a separate jar. Make sure you have a lid for each.
• Once all of the teas are in jars, add drinking water. If tap water is drinkable, it is perfect otherwise, pour bottled water.
• Fully close each jar and start with the steeping, infusing, and cold brewing process. For a bit stronger concentration, keep the jars on the kitchen counter for an hour and place them into the fridge later. Keep in the refrigerator for 8 to 9 hours, best overnight.
• Once your infused teas are fully cold-brewed, strain each one and store them in clean jars in the fridge for 3 to 4 days.

BLUEBERRY-LEMONADE ICED TEA

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, add the frozen blueberries, and the water.
• Bring water to a boil; stir once or twice while waiting for the water to come to a boil.
• After the water comes to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, cover the pan, and simmer the berries for 10 minutes.
• Remove pan from the heat, and strain the water/blueberries.
• Add the tea bags to the pan, cover the pan, and steep the tea for 1 hour.
• Remove the tea bags from the pan, and strain the tea twice.
• Pour the blueberry-tea into a heat proof glass pitcher.
• To the pitcher, add one tub of the sugar-free lemonade flavored drink mix, and give the mixture a good stir.
• Add the blueberry juice to the pitcher, and stir.
• At this point you can immediately serve the tea in a glass filled with ice, or you can chill the tea in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

LEMONADE ICED TEA

Steps:

• Bring 2-3 cups of water to a boil. Pour into gallon size pitcher, add tea bags and steep for 5-10 minutes, to taste. (I have left it overnight before; leave it as long as you like, the longer it steeps the stronger it gets, but 10 minutes is sufficient.).
• Remove tea bags, and add the lemonade mix. Top with cold water and ice to fill the pitcher. I usually don't have ice, and just chill it a few hours in my fridge.
