Tea-Riffic Summer Cocktail
I love this tea on a hot summer night! I derived this recipe from a chai latte special at my previous natural food restaurant. Teas and tonics are one of my favorite recipes to create – the possibilities are endless and unlimited.
Ingredients
2 cups water (filtered or spring)
4 organic chai green tea bags (can use black chai as well)
3 cinnamon sticks
1 medium piece fresh ginger root
1/4 cup raw honey
4-6 cups pure filtered ice
A few black peppercorns
Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
In a pot, bring tea bags, spices, ginger, and honey to a simmer. Remove from heat, stir, cover, and let steep for at least 15 minutes.
Step 2
Strain over the 6 cups of ice and pour into a large punch bowl or pitcher.
Note:
For extra flavor, you can add orange peel and mint.
