This is a wonderful tea I made over the weekend. Got the recipe from Giada and this tea is wonderful. My husband drank almost the whole pitcher of tea on Sunday. Hope you will try it, it is a little unusual and has great flavor.
On our honeymoon, years ago, we had our first taste of lime in iced tea and we both loved it. So we really like the lime and the thyme really compliments the lime. Anyway, try it!
6-8 cups of water
6-7 sprigs of fresh thyme
zest of 2 limes
juice of 2 limes
2 cinnamon sticks
1/3 cup of sugar (if you use 8 cups of water add a little more sugar)
3 tea bags
Add water to a sauce pan and bring to a boil, add everything except the tea bags. Let mixture boil until sugar is dissolved. Turn off heat and add tea bags. Let is steep for 15 minutes. Pour into a tea pitcher and serve.
** I used the 2 cinnamon sticks according to the recipe. Next time I will try only one it was just a little too cinnamonie for me.
