Posh Jasmine Iced Tea Recipes

Steps:

• Bring 10 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan. Place tea bags in a large heatproof container. Add boiling water, and steep for 3 minutes. Remove tea bags. Let cool completely.
• Meanwhile, bring sugar and remaining 1/2 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring, until sugar dissolves. Let cool completely.
• Stir together tea and 3/4 cup simple syrup, plus more if needed, depending on desired sweetness. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Divide among ice-filled glasses.

Steps:

• Bring water to a simmer in a small saucepan. Remove from heat, add jasmine pearls, and infuse for 2 1/2 minutes. Strain through a small sieve into a pitcher. Discard pearls. Let cool.
• Add syrup and tangerine juice to pitcher. Divide tangerineade among ice-filled glasses. (Or cover, and refrigerate for up to 3 days.)

Steps:

• In a large pitcher combine the tea and water. Mix the sugar or honey with about a cup of hot water so that it dissolves and will mix with the room temperature water. Add the sugar/ hot water mixture to the pitcher. Put the pitcher in the refrigerator (preferably before you go to sleep) and let the tea leaves soak until morning (9-12 hours). Add lemon to taste and then pour the tea through a strainer so as to catch the tea leaves before serving.

Steps:

• Dissolve sugar in 3/4 cup of water, and boil gently until a syrup has formed. Set aside and let cool.
• Steep the jasmine tea in the remaining 3 1/4 cups of hot water for around 6 minutes.
• Strain out tea, and let cool.

Steps:

• Put a lid on the pan and remove from the heat and allow to steep for 20 minutes.

• You may leave the cinnamon in the tea if you like, it will add more flavor if it remains in the tea.
