Directions
Boil the water in a kettle. Pour the hot water into a large teapot or heat-proof container and add the Wild Raspberry Hibiscus and Peppermint tea bags. Let the tea steep for 6-8 minutes. Remove the tea bags and let the tea cool completely. *Note: speed up the cooling process by placing the teapot/heat-proof container in the fridge.
Meanwhile, add the strawberries to a small pot along with the honey and water. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium high heat. Reduce the heat to low and cook until the berries have softened, about 5-8 minutes. Let the berry mixture cool for 10 minutes.
Once the berry mixture has cooled, place it in a blender and blend the mixture on high speed until the mixture is smooth. Pour the blended berries through a fine mesh sieve that is placed over a bowl. Set aside.
Once the tea has fully cooled, pour it into a glass pitcher and add in the strawberry purée. Use a wooden spoon to stir everything together to combine.
Serve over ice with a sprig of mint and extra strawberries for garnish.
Enjoy!
