Homemade iced tea
Refreshing thirst quencher for the whole family.
In fact, it is very easy to prepare a tasty iced tea at home and you can not only vary the base according to your taste, but also adjust the sweetness perfectly to your own enjoyment. The types of green mate (tart and stimulating, not for children), red clover (ideal for the whole family) and house tea (fruity, refreshing) are ideal for preparing iced tea.
Ingredients for 1 liter of iced tea
- 2-4 tea bags
- Neuner’s red clover organic
- 1-2 sticks
- Lemongrass
- 1Â Â lime
- optionally 1-2 tsp  honey
Preparation time:Â Â 2 minutes
Brewing time:Â Â 7-10 minutes
instructions
Bring 1 liter of water to the boil, add the tea bags to bubbling hot water and let steep for 7-10 minutes. Make sure to prepare the tea infusion a little more intensively, as ice cubes dampen and increasingly dilute the taste.
Remove the outermost leaves of the lemongrass and tap lightly with the back of a knife until a delicate scent comes out.
Cut the lime into slices and add both to the steeping tea - the longer, the more intense the taste.
Remove the tea bags, lemongrass and lime slices, let the tea cool and serve in a decorative carafe.
It can be sweetened with good honey as desired.
A little sweetness is definitely recommended for iced tea, as the aroma of the herbs remains more intense despite the ice cubes.
Tip: For a stimulating iced tea, we recommend preparing it with Neuner's  Mate green organic . When preparing mate iced tea, the tea steeping time is shortened to 3-5 minutes.
