After the spring showers pass, the days welcome sunshine and higher temperatures. Iced tea is the perfect solution to cool down and quench your thirst on a sunny, beach-worthy day. As you may know, tea is the second most widely consumed beverage after water. This is largely true because people love iced tea.
Have you tried Art of Tea’s new spring blend, White Acai? Well, if you like it hot, you’ll definitely love it iced! White Acai became an instant tea favorite of mine from the moment of my first sip. This organic white tea is delicate and naturally sweetened. Acai berries from the Amazon rainforests are grounded into a fine powder and nicely complimented with organic pineapple bits, rosehips, hibiscus, apple bits and black currants. This fruity libation is delightfully refreshing. Follow these simple directions for an amazing iced tea. Recipe yields five 8 oz. servings.
