This old-time formula incorporates Ceylon, China and Indian teas, with a splash of bergamot, to make a bright amber cup with a smooth well-rounded taste. The subtle citrus notes make this an ideal blend for iced tea!
Ingredients: Black teas and natural bergamot flavor.
Brew tea at 212º - steep for 3 minutes.
To make the perfect glass of iced tea: Put approximately ½ ounce (¼ cup) of loose tea into a small container. Pour boiling water over the tea to cover. Let steep 5 minutes, strain out leaves into a ½ gallon (8 cup) container and add cold water to fill. Stir and refrigerate.
If your iced tea gets cloudy, add a few drops of boiling water to the brew.
Iced Tea Blend with Basil and Blackberries
7 tsp Iced Tea Blend Tea 3/4 cup fresh blackberries 12 freshly picked basil leaves, cut into pieces 4 cups boiling water ice lemon slices maple syrup, to taste
In a large pot combine the loose tea, blackberries, and cut basil. Fill the pot with the boiling water, mash the blackberries, cover and steep for 5 minutes.
Strain out the leaves and fruit. Chill. Then pour over ice. Add a little maple syrup and a slice of lemon. Enjoy!
Iced Tea Popsicles
Just the thing to beat the summer heat … tea popsicles!
1 tsp Iced Tea Blend Tea ½ cup boiling water ½ cup lemonade
Brew the tea for 4 minutes in the boiling water. Strain and combine with the lemonade. Pour into popsicle molds, ice cube trays, or paper cups and freeze. These are a refreshing, delicious way to keep cool!
This is the exact flavor that I love for an iced tea. Perfect. I drink it unsweetened and it has such a satisfying flavor when I want a true black iced tea. And when I accidentally lose track of time and steep a couple minutes longer than I'm supposed to, the flavor is nice and strong, but with no bitter or bad tastes. This is a winner for sure!

Perfect Iced Tea Blend!
I'm not a huge fan of bergamont, and don't regularly drink earl grey teas, but I decided to give this blend a try. The touch of bergamont in this blend is perfect, and not overpowering! I drink my iced tea black, and the bergamont adds the just the right amount of brightness and acidity. I would highly recommend this blend, and will be ordering it again!
