Iced Strawberry Tea | Seasoned Cooking

Iced Strawberry Tea This refreshing tea is a special treat on a hot summer day. Because you puree most of the strawberries, it's a great way to use small or slightly bruised fruit.

1 pint fresh strawberries
4 cups chilled tea
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

Set five whole strawberries aside. Puree the remaining strawberries in a blender and strain the puree into a pitcher. Stir in the tea, sugar and lemon juice until the sugar dissolves. Chill for at least an hour. Serve in tall glasses over ice and garnish with the whole berries.

Yields: about 5 cups
Preparation Time: 10 minutes, plus chilling time
