Sparkling ICE Raspberry Iced Tea Recipe


I love the Sparkling ICE beverages because they are low in calories and taste delicious! Besides drinking them straight from the bottle, you can mix them up with other ingredients to come up with some unique beverage, cocktail and dessert recipes.

The great folks over at Sparkling ICE sent over this Raspberry Iced Tea recipe for me to share with all of my blog readers. I think it looks absolutely delicious!

Sparkling ICE Raspberry Iced Tea Recipe

1 bottle of Black Raspberry Sparkling ICE
4 mint tea bags
5-6 limes
Mint sprigs
Honey or agave nectar (optional)

Directions:  Bring 4 cups of water to a boil.  Remove from heat and add 4 bags of mint tea. Steep for 10 minutes. Chill in the refrigerator for about 3 hours. Approximately 8 teaspoons of lime juice, also chilled. Mix 1 cup of the chilled mint tea with 1 to 2 teaspoons of the lime juice in a chilled glass. If you would like your tea extra sweet add in some honey, agava nectar, otherwise skip to the next step.  Add ¼ cup of chilled Black Raspberry Sparkling ICE to fill the glass. Add crushed ice and stir. Add a lime wedge and mint sprig for garnish.
