I'm Using This Trick All Summer Long to Make Big Fruity Iced Teas.
(Haven't tried it yet; sounds interesting.)
'I’m a big fan of fruity, flavored iced tea—but I’m not a fan of the effort required to actually make some. I used to have a whole process: cook fruit with sugar and water, brew tea, mix the two, and on top of all of that, wait until everything cooled down so the ice didn’t dilute the flavor I worked so hard for. It was worth it, but I’d be lying if I said I made it often. That is, until I started making iced tea with jam. Yes, iced tea with jam.
A flavored iced tea is the ideal warm weather beverage, especially for someone like me who doesn’t drink alcohol. It’s cold, refreshing, and earthy but not overly sweet or boring. On one sweltering day last summer, I couldn’t bear the thought of turning on my gas stove to make a flavored syrup for iced tea. I opened the fridge in pursuit of a refreshing bev and there was nothing except a jar of raspberry preserves staring me in the face. It hit me: Use the jam to make a pseudo simple syrup and brew the tea directly in that hot syrupy liquid. >>>

online. All sorts including peppermint, lemon grass and dandelion, (dandelion for when I want to detox the body) I just throw a bunch in a big pot and put a lot of water in it. And maybe this is wrong but I boil it for several minutes and let it sit to make it real strong and then I just put it in a 2 gallon jug and add water and stevia.
Teas are really healthy but they are expensive to buy already made. And I rarely find them made with what I actually want in them.
I think I'll make some tomorrow and put some raspberry jam in it.
