Cranberry Immune Booster from Tea Drift is one that I didn’t just want to brew up the normal way. With the huge twisting hibiscus leaves and the gorgeous dried fruit pieces, this tea screamed-brew me up and make me a shaken iced tea. And that is exactly what I did.
Brewed the tea up with water prepped at 212F and allowed to steep for about 5 minutes, this brew didn’t turn out to be that bright pink liquor that I’m so used to seeing. I did take a sip while the tea was hot but I will admit, it just wasn’t one that grabbed my attention. The tartness was there but it almost needed a bit of honey or sugar thrown in to elevate the flavors.
After brewing the tea, I poured the tea into a cocktail shaker full of ice. Added in a touch of honey and shook that tea up. Poured into a tall glass and threw in a lemon wedge.
This is the way this tea should be enjoyed! Shaken with a touch of fruit for garnish. The lovely sweet and tart flavors of the different fruits and herbs mingle and compliment each other wonderfully. The lemon thrown in gave the tea a degree of citrus that really sold me on this tea.
All in all, a lovely blend of different fruit and herbs that can brewed so many different ways. Now this has me wanting to experiment and make more shaken iced teas!
