How to Make Citrus Bouquet Tea

  1. Using a vegetable peeler, carefully remove the rind from one grapefruit, two oranges, and one lemon.
  2. Arrange the citrus rinds in a single layer on a wire rack and let them air dry at room temperature until completely brittle. This will take approximately 24 hours.
  3. Once brittle, break the dried citrus rinds into 1/4-inch pieces.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine the dried citrus rinds (approximately 1 cup total) with 1 cup of your favorite loose leaf black tea or herbal tea blend.
  5. Spoon the tea mixture into decorative tea bags or an airtight container for storage.
  6. To brew, add 1-2 teaspoons of the Citrus Bouquet Tea blend to a mug and steep in freshly boiled water for 3-5 minutes. Sweeten with honey or sugar to taste. Makes approximately 35 servings.
