Description
A refreshing Iced Strawberry Jasmine Tea Latte that combines sweet strawberries and fragrant jasmine tea for a delightful summertime drink.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb California strawberries (hulled and chopped)
- Juice of ½ a lemon
- 2 Tbsp water
- 2 Tbsp honey
- 2 cups hot water (about 170°-180°F)
- 3 Tbsp jasmine tea pearls (or 4–5 jasmine tea bags)
- 4 cups crushed ice
- ¾ cup cold milk
Instructions
- Prepare the Strawberry Syrup: In a medium pot over medium heat, combine the chopped strawberries, lemon juice, water, and honey. Cook, stirring continuously, until the strawberries completely break down into a thick syrup, about 6-8 minutes.
- Puree and Chill: Transfer the cooked mixture to a blender and pulse until smooth. Place the syrup in the fridge and chill until completely cool.
- Brew the Jasmine Tea: Pour the hot water over the jasmine tea pearls or tea bags in a heatproof container. Let it steep for 3-4 minutes. Strain out the tea leaves, and chill the brewed tea until cool.
- Assemble the Latte: In each of four glasses, spoon 3 tablespoons of strawberry syrup into the bottom. Add one cup of crushed ice to each glass.
- Pour and Serve: Divide the chilled jasmine tea among the glasses, followed by a few tablespoons of milk on top. Stir gently and serve immediately.
Notes
Serve chilled and garnish with fresh mint or sliced strawberries for an elegant touch.
