This tea is so refreshing and delicious. I have been making it all summer long. It is so simple and is full of anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatory properties from the thyme, hibiscus tea and raw honey. The freshly squeezed orange juice kicks up the vitamin C and enhances the sweetness. I love this tea so much and truly believe I will be making it even in the cooler months to come. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
Large mason jar
Purified water
2 bags of hibiscus tea (I like Traditional Medicinals)
5-10 fresh thyme sprigs
2 Tbl of honey, raw and local if you can
2 oranges, juiced
Directions:
Fill 1/3 of a mason jar with hot water (do not fill the whole jar with boiling water as it could crack the glass). Put the honey in the hot water to dissolve it and then add the tea bags and thyme. Let this sit for a few minutes so the tea steeps. Fill the rest of the jar with room temp water. Add the juice from two oranges. Place the lid on top, swirl and put in the fridge. I usually leave this tea in the fridge for a couple hours to let all the ingredients come together. Pour into a glass of ice over a strainer and enjoy!
