Orange Pomegranate Iced Tea
Ingredients
- 4 cups water
- 1 navel orange sliced
- 1 cinnamon stick broken
- 6 whole cloves
- 4 black tea bags
- 1 cup pomegranate juice
- 1 cup orange juice
- 2-3 Tbsp sweetener of choice to taste
Instructions
To make Orange Pomegranate Iced Tea:
- In a large saucepan, combine water, orange slices, cinnamon, and cloves.
- Bring to a boil, add sweetener, and stir until dissolved.
- Remove from heat, add tea bags, and cover.
- Steep for 5 minutes, then strain mixture.
- Combine tea with orange juice and pomegranate juice.
- Cover and allow to chill (4 hours or overnight).
- Serve with orange and lime wedges over ice and enjoy!
To make Iced Tea Popsicles:
- Pour into popsicle molds and freeze (6-8 hours, or overnight).
- Once frozen, remove desired pops from mold and enjoy! (You may need to allow pops to sit outside of the freezer for a minute or two in order to easily remove from mold.) You can leave pops in molds in freezer for a few days.
- For longer storage, remove from molds and place in individual freezer bags, or in an airtight plastic container with layers of wax paper or plastic wrap in between. Will last 3 to 4 weeks stored this way.
- Yields 6 cups of orange pomegranate iced tea, or ~12 iced tea popsicles.
