How to Make Strawberry Mint Sun Tea
- Combine 8 cups of cold water, 4 black tea bags, and 1 cup of fresh mint leaves in a large, clear glass pitcher or jar.
- Cover the pitcher loosely with a clean dish towel or cheesecloth to prevent insects from entering.
- Place the pitcher in direct sunlight for 4-6 hours, or until the tea reaches your desired strength. (For a quicker brew, use 8 cups of boiling water and steep for 10-20 minutes)
- While the tea steeps, hull and slice 1 pound of fresh strawberries.
- Once steeped, remove the tea bags and mint leaves.
- Divide the sliced strawberries and ice among six tall glasses.
- Pour the sun tea over the strawberries and ice in each glass.
- Sweeten each glass to taste with sugar or honey.
- Garnish with fresh mint sprigs (optional).
- Enjoy your delicious and refreshing Strawberry Mint Sun Tea!
