We love when the temperature starts to rise and the iced tea starts brewing! The best part about iced tea is how easily you can add fruits and herbs to completely change the flavor profile. This recipe uses plums and thyme (yum!) but as long as the ingredients are fresh, almost any additions would taste great.
Ingredients
- 2 tea bags (black, herbal or try something different!)
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 plums, sliced
- 8 sprigs fresh thyme
Directions
- In a large saucepan, bring 3 cups water to a boil. Remove from heat, add the tea bags, and let steep for 10 minutes. Discard the bags and allow the tea to cool to room temperature.
- Stir in the honey, plums, and thyme. Transfer to a pitcher and refrigerate until cool, about 1 1/2 hours. Serve over ice.
- For an instant cocktail: Stir in 1/2 cup bourbon before serving.
