Esther's razzle dazzle iced tea
If you need a cooling, delicious drink to keep the heat wave at bay, look no further. Esther's razzle dazzle iced tea features plenty of aromatic spices to delight your taste buds without the need for added sugar.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon fennel seeds
- 2 cloves
- ½ star anis or just some broken bits like in the picture
- 2 - 3 thin slices of fresh ginger
- A few sprigs of fresh mint
Instructions
- Put all ingredients except the mint in a tea bag, tea ball, or sieve. Steep in 1 liter of boiling water for about 5 or 10 minutes.
- Add the mint. Steep for another 5 minutes or so. You can also add the mint to the serving jug after it has cooled down instead of steeping it in hot water. The result is pretty and “mintier.” You can also add blackberries to the jug to make it look really fancy.
- Remove spices and let cool to room temperature before transferring to the refrigerator to chill or add ice cubes to have right away.
