Strawberry iced tea a perfect summer drink made with real fruit, freshness of lemon and mint and of course the body cooling tea.

Looking for a drink to serve for your next barbecue or summer party to cool off that is not alcoholic then the Strawberry Iced Tea is perfect. It has the real fruit, freshness of lemon and mint and of course the body cooling tea.Making this drink is pretty easy u just need to boil the berry and the natural most beautiful vermilion color seeps in as it rests.
Did you know strawberry is from the rose family hence they smell so sweet too.  What more do you want? Just beat the heat sipping some strawberry iced tea.
Here is Mango Iced Tea if you prefer to try a different fruit flavor.

How to make Iced tea ?

Make a simple syrup with the strawberry in it and brew some tea in it. Add some ice cubes slices of strawberry,lemon wedges and mint and make it pretty.

Is strawberry puree a good substitute ?

  • Strawberry puree will make the tea really cloudy and thick like smoothie. So go for the simple syrup instead.
  • Replace 1 cup water with sparkling water or soda for extra punch.

Fresh Fruit Simple Syrup Is the Key

Fresh fruit simple syrups are one of the easiest to make at home. It adds color and flavor to drinks, as the fruit flavor gets really concentrated and brightens up any drink.

Strawberry is one of my favorite fruits and I have some unique recipes. When you end up with boxes of strawberry that is not firm and pretty anymore here are some creative recipe ideas that will come in handy to use up all the leftover fruit where shape does not matter only the strawberry flavor matters.

  • Inside Out Grilled Strawberry and Cheese Sandwich
  • Strawberry Yogurt Pudding /Eggless Baked Pudding / Without thickening agents
  • My favorite Strawberry Simple Syrup
