Iced Chamomile Flowers

teas.co.uk · 10 min + chill · Serves 4

You'll need

• 4 Teapigs Chamomile Flowers tea temples
• 500ml just boiled water
• 500ml cold water
• 1 tablespoon honey, optional
• Lemon slices and ice, to serve

Method

1. Pour the just boiled water over the 4 temples in a covered jug and steep 6 minutes; chamomile takes a generous steep and will not turn bitter.
2. Remove the chamomile temples and, if using honey, stir it in while warm.
3. Cool to room temperature, then chill. There is no tannin, so it stays clear without crashing over ice.
4. Stir in the 500ml cold water.
5. Serve over ice with lemon slices; the lemon lifts the honeyed chamomile.
6. Caffeine free, so an easy evening drink. Store the chamomile jug covered in the fridge and finish it soon; we give no date for how long home made chamomile iced tea keeps.
