Iced Cleanse
teas.co.uk · 10 min + chill · Serves 4
You'll need
- 4 Teapigs Cleanse tea temples
- 500ml water, boiled then cooled to about 80C
- 500ml cold water
- Cucumber ribbons, lime slices and a little mint, to serve
- A little honey, optional
Method
- Boil the water and cool it to about 80C, then steep the 4 temples for 5 minutes; cooler water stops the green base going bitter once iced.
- Lift the temples out without squeezing, and stir in a little honey while warm only if you want it softened.
- Cool to room temperature, then chill gently rather than crashing over ice, which protects the delicate green note.
- Stir in the 500ml cold water.
- Serve over ice with cucumber ribbons, lime and mint; the cucumber plays to the clean green and the lime sharpens the fennel.
- Best within 2 days as green blends fade faster than black.
