Iced Liquorice and Peppermint

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

You'll need

• 4 Teapigs Liquorice and Peppermint tea temples
• 500ml water, boiled then left 30 seconds off the boil
• 500ml cold water
• Plenty of ice
• Lemon slices and fresh mint, to serve

Method

1. Pour the just off the boil water over the 4 temples in a covered jug and steep 6 minutes, a little longer so the liquorice gives up its natural sweetness.
2. Lift the temples out. Taste; it should already be sweet enough with no sugar.
3. Cool to room temperature, then chill. There is no tannin, so it will not go cloudy.
4. Stir in the 500ml cold water.
5. Serve over plenty of ice with lemon and mint; the lemon balances the liquorice nicely.
6. Keep it covered in the fridge and drink it soon; we don't give a keeping time for home made iced tea. Caffeine free, good all day.
