How To Make Iced Lychee Tea

To make this tea, I'm using sweet lychee black tea. Now, most people, when making a cold tea, they tend to be brewing tea with double the quantity and half the water amount but I think the best way to extract the sweet flavour of black tea is to actually do a cold fusion. Now, in this pot, I have some lychee black tea that has been fused in cold water overnight.

Over at least 4 or 5 hours, I would say. I have here also a glass of ice. There is no sweetener as you can see.

Some mint, to be correct. Lychee tea -lychee black tea is a scented black tea that's naturally sweet. So, you do not need to add any more honey or sugar or syrup.

It's a very healthy drink. So, after infusing for at least 4 hours, I will pour this with the filter through into the cup. Now, this infusion here can be used as the base for a lot of alcoholic drinks.

So, in British summer, if you like, this can be a base for pits. I am decorating with a sprig of mint. If you want, you can add fresh lime juice that can accent the lychee black tea.

And this is how you make lychee black tea. .
