Cold Brewed Iced Tea Lemonade With Mint Ice Cubes – sweet and flavorful drink,perfect for any occasion, ready in 10 minutes.
It is still summer and still pretty hot around here! I try to enjoy this nice weather, because it will not last very long around here.
Since it is that hot, I’m always in need for a refreshing beverage. I drink a lot of water, but at times I need something sweet and refreshing. Being active all the time and the fact that I just had a baby, means I need to constantly stay hydrated. But I try to avoid sugary sodas and I’ve also gotten tired from drinking them, I just prefer a glass of good iced tea.
Speaking about iced tea, I’m so happy to share with you that I’ve found a unique product – Bigelow® Cold Brew Iced Tea Half&Half Tea & Lemonade. I got it from the tea section at my local Walmart.
I love its taste, it is naturally sweetened. There are 6 family size (quart) tea bags inside the box. All you need to do is add cold water and steep for 7-10 minutes. For 1 tea bag, you need to add 32 oz cold water. My husband, who is not a tea drinker, said this one tasted amazing and I need to make it again. The best part – it is 0 calories.
Bigelow® Cold Brew Iced Tea comes in two other flavors – raspberry ad peach, which could also be mixed together.
While I do love tea and lemonade with a few slices of lemon, I also like adding whatever fresh fruit I have available to my tea. This time, I added peach slices and diced mango to my tea and lemonade.
Another way to make your drink extra special is to add mint ice cubes. These are super easy to make, add extra freshness and minty flavor and will be nice addition to any drink. All you need to do is add a leaf of mint to each slow of an ice cube tray and fill with water. Then freeze. Use for your favorite summer drinks.
Do you have a favorite drink for the summer? Are you a tea lover? You can add some extra freshness to your tea with these mint ice cubes.
