June marks the official start of summer! And there’s nothing quite so refreshing as iced tea on a hot day. In celebration of National Iced Tea Month, I think it’s time to jazz up your next batch of iced tea. Instead of reaching for the same old plain black tea all the time, here are a few ideas to satisfy every preference:

 

Black Currant Iced Tea

 

For those who love their tried-and-true black iced tea but want a unique spin on the classic, this one is perfect! China black tea leaves are blended with rich black currants to give this tea a fruity flavor that’s perfect for summer. Fruity black teas pair perfectly with sweet desserts, so how about a slice of fruity pie or some chocolate to go with?

 

Organic Green Iced Tea with Citrus & Ginkgo

 

If you’re looking for something light, refreshing, and healthy to enjoy, this organic green tea blends the bright taste of organic lemongrass and citrus peel with the earthy twang of ginkgo. Perfect for the health conscious tea drinker! The mix of citrus fruitiness and a light vegetal ginkgo flavor means this tea pairs well with chicken, sandwiches, seafood, and fruit salad.

 

Summer Escape

 

For those who prefer an herbal iced tea, here’s one filled with the sweet ambrosia of a perfect summer day. Rooibos, honeybush, lemongrass, marigolds, orange peel & apple bits steep to a clean finish of ripe apricots and Asian pears, which is delightful over ice!

 

Remember, though, that you can always try pouring any tea over ice to see how it tastes! You can find all these teas and more at www.luciaandcompany.com. Or give us a call at (888) 670-5559 to sign up for the Tea of the Month Club and get a new exclusive tea delivered to your door every month!
