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.

POSH JASMINE ICED TEA

Steps:

• In a large, glass heatproof pitcher, steep the tea bags in the boiling water. Add the cinnamon bark and star anise and let it infuse for 5 minutes.
• Strain the steeped tea, and then stir in the honey and mix well. Cool the tea to room temperature, and then chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• When ready to serve, stir in the apple juice. Pour into glasses topped with some ice cubes, or pour over scoops of sorbet. Tumble in the fresh fruit and garnish with mint sprigs and lemon slices. Serve with fun straws.

• 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.
• Add the Rose Water and stir.
• Cool to room temp or chill.
• Sweeten to your taste.
• Serve over ice (you can certainly drink it hot if you wish).

SPICED JASMINE TEA

COLD BREWED JASMINE ICED TEA

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.
