On hot summer days, iced tea is a refreshing alternative to hot drinks. At Kontemplation's latest yoga retreat, the kitchen served both a green and a white version. Here's our recipe:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Ingredients:<\/strong><\/p>\n It is quite crucial for the taste that the starting point is a quality tea. We have actually settled on two variants that call for sun and summer. One is organic green sencha with dried flowers, citrus and mango oil, the other is an organic white emperor tea with pineapple and strawberries. There will be a wide range of other teas that work at least as well.<\/p>\n In addition to the tea, a little sweetness is needed. We prefer acacia honey and agave syrup because they don't take over the flavor, but support the finer nuances of the tea.<\/p>\n Finally, to balance the sweetness and acidity of the drink, add the juice of half to a whole lemon and a few lime slices.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Procedure:<\/strong><\/p>\n Heat the water to 80 degrees and let the tea steep for two to three minutes. If it steeps longer, its bitter substances will become too prominent when the tea is drunk cold.<\/p>\n Mix in a little honey or agave syrup. You have to experiment here, but you need less than you think. All the flavor nuances become clearer as the tea cools.<\/p>\n Leave the drink in the fridge until it is completely cold. This will take a few hours. Then add the squeezed lemon.<\/p>\n Serve with lime slices and ice cubes.<\/p>\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Til de varme sommerdage er ist\u00e9 et godt og l\u00e6skende alternativ til de varme drikke.
