Summer Breeze Sangria Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon Summer Breeze tea blend
- 4 cups water
- 1 cup white wine (optional)
- Fresh fruit (mango, persimmons, blackberries, strawberries, papaya) for garnish
- Honey or sweetener of choice (optional)
- Ice
Instructions:
1. Brew the Tea:
Begin your sangria adventure by heating 4 cups of water. Once it's nice and hot, add 1 tablespoon of our Summer Breeze tea blend. Let it steep for 5-7 minutes, allowing all those tropical flavors to come to life. Your kitchen will start smelling like a paradise island – you're welcome!
2. Strain and Cool:
Strain the tea leaves and let the tea cool to room temperature. We know it's tempting, but patience is a virtue, and your sangria will thank you for it.
3. Mix the Sangria:
In a pitcher, combine the cooled tea with 1 cup of white wine if you're feeling a bit fancy (and over 21). No judgment if you skip this step for a mocktail version – it'll be delicious either way. Stir in honey or your preferred sweetener if you like a touch of extra sweetness.
4. Chill:
Pop that pitcher in the fridge and let it chill for at least 2 hours. This gives the flavors time to meld into a harmonious blend of fruity goodness. The longer it chills, the more sublime it becomes.
5. Serve:
When you're ready to impress your guests (or just pamper yourself), serve the sangria over ice. Garnish with a medley of fresh fruit – mango slices, persimmon chunks, blackberries, strawberries, and papaya bits. Each sip will transport you to a tropical paradise.
And there you have it – your very own Summer Breeze Sangria! Perfect for summer barbecues, garden parties, or any occasion that calls for a touch of tropical flair.
We hope you enjoyed this edition of Sunday Sips. Stay tuned for more tea-infused recipes that will elevate your tea game and bring joy to your taste buds.
Cheers to a summer filled with sunshine and sangria! 🥭🍓🍷
