There is a lot of controversy around artificial sweeteners, and while I am not sure where I stand on the issue, I have decided to stay away from them. I figure the less crap I put in my body, the better…
I created a simple recipe to make sure I have something on hand to drink, other than water. Water is important, but the fact is, sometimes we want something else. My personal focus, and the focus of this blog, is to create solutions and recipes to make sure I am prepared with quick and easy solutions to being healthy and satisfied, BUT make sure they are NATURAL.
Quick, Simple & Delicious Iced Tea
Use any fruit flavored tea bags, my favorite is Celestial's Country Peach Passion
- Boil 4 cups of water in microwave for 10 minutes (I used a large Pyrex glass measuring cup)
- Remove container from microwave and place 8 tea bags in water and steep for 6 minutes
- Meanwhile, pour 4 cups of ice and water (you can use any combination – I used 50/50) in a 2 Quart Pitcher
- When Tea is done steeping, remove tea bags and add 8 Agave Nectar Sticks
I keep this on hand in my refrigerator and it is very refreshing… ALSO, my husband who is not a big iced tea fan, drinks it!!
