This easy Lime & Raspberry Iced Tea made with homemade raspberry syrup, freshly squeezed lime juice, mint and green tea is the perfect refreshing cold beverage for hot summer days.
In a blender, combine raspberries, lime juice, honey and ¼ cup water. Blend until perfectly smooth.
Place green tea bags in a large heatproof pitcher. Pour the simmering water into the pitcher and let it steep for at least 5 minutes (at least 10 if using green tea). Remove the tea bags and discard. Refrigerate the tea until cool.
When the tea has cooled, combine it with the raspberry syrup. The quantity of syrup varies according to your taste. I used about 1 tbsp per cup.
Add mint leaves and mix well. Refrigerate for at least one hour to let the flavors develop. If you don't serve it the same day, discard mint leaves or the flavor will be too strong
You will have some raspberry lime syrup leftovers.
