Get Creative for National Iced Tea Day!

June 10th is National Iced Tea Day, and that means it’s time to get creative with your iced tea recipes. Don’t worry if you’ve been drinking the same old boring iced tea every day; there are plenty of amazing flavors out there just waiting to be explored. Here are some of our favorite ways to spice up your iced tea game this summer.

Fruit Infusions

One of the easiest and most delicious ways to flavor your iced tea is by adding fresh fruit infusions. Simply add a few slices of lemon, lime, orange, or whatever other fruit you like into a pitcher of brewed tea. Let it sit overnight in the fridge and enjoy the next day! You can also try adding some berries or pomegranate arils for an extra-special twist.

Herbs & Spices

If you’re looking for something a little bit different, why not try adding herbs and spices? Start by steeping some fresh mint leaves in boiling water along with your favorite loose leaf black or green tea. Once it’s cooled down, mix in a teaspoon or two of honey for sweetness and serve over ice. Or try steeping some cinnamon sticks and star anise in tea for an aromatic spiced, iced chai-style drink!

Syrups & Sauces

If you don’t have any fresh fruits or herbs on hand (or just don’t feel like getting them out), then why not try using syrups and sauces? For example, add a splash of strawberry syrup into an already brewed glass of unsweetened green tea for a delicious strawberry-flavored drink. Or stir in some agave nectar or maple syrup into black tea for added sweetness. Yum!

Whether you prefer sweet fruity drinks or spicy herbal concoctions, there are so many different ways to flavor your iced teas this National Iced Tea Day! So grab your loose leaf teas and start experimenting—you never know what amazing flavor combos you might discover! Happy sipping!
