Ingredients

  • 2 bags black tea
  • 2 bags oolong tea
  • 2 bags yerba mate
  • 1.2 litres (5 cups) just-boiled water
  • 2 tbsp sugar or maple syrup (optional)
  • 2 tbsp milk or fruit juice (optional)
  • ½ cup ice (optional)

Directions

1

Place tea bags in French press or coffee pot. Make sure to keep the strings taut to prevent the paper weights from falling in.

2

Pour the hot water into French press. Place lid on top, with a tight grip on the paper weights.

3

Let the tea steep for 5 minutes.

4

If using a French press, slowly push the plunger onto the bags, again with a tight grip on the paper weights.

5

Take off the lid, scoop the teabags out, and gently squeeze the brew from the bags before disposing of them.

6

Add sweetener and stir thoroughly.

7

Let tea cool to room temperature. Serve over ice, or place open pot in freezer for 70 minutes for quicker cooling. Stir in milk or citrus juice before serving.
