Calories: 20kcal
Ingredients
- 4 cups of water
- 4 tablespoons of dried raspberry leaves (or 4 raspberry leaf tea bags)
- 1-2 tablespoons of honey or maple syrup (optional, to taste)
- Fresh raspberries (optional, for garnish)
- Ice cubes
Instructions
- Boil the Water: Begin by boiling 4 cups of water in a medium-sized pot.
- Steep the Tea: When the water reaches a boil, take it off the heat. Add the raspberry leaves or tea bags and cover the pot. Let the tea steep for 10-15 minutes, depending on how strong you like it.
- Strain the Tea: After steeping, strain the tea into a heat-resistant pitcher to remove the leaves or tea bags.
- Sweeten (Optional): If you prefer a sweeter tea, stir in honey or maple syrup while the tea is still warm.
- Cool and Chill: Allow the tea to cool to room temperature, then transfer it to the refrigerator to chill for at least 1-2 hours.
- Serve: Fill glasses with ice cubes, pour the chilled raspberry leaf tea over the ice, and garnish with fresh raspberries if desired. Enjoy!
