Method
Prepare Tea Base
Boil Water
In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil over medium-high heat.
Steep Tea
Once the water is boiling, remove it from heat and add 4 black tea bags. Let it steep for 5-7 minutes depending on your desired strength.
Remove Tea Bags
After steeping, remove the tea bags and allow the tea to cool to room temperature.
Make Raspberry Syrup
Combine Ingredients
In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of fresh raspberries, 1 cup of sugar, and 1 cup of water.
Cook Mixture
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar has completely dissolved.
Simmer and Strain
Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes. Afterward, strain the syrup through a fine mesh sieve to remove the raspberry seeds, pressing down to extract all the juice.
Combine and Serve
Mix Tea and Syrup
In a large pitcher, combine the cooled tea and raspberry syrup. Add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and stir well.
Serve Over Ice
Fill glasses with ice cubes, then pour the raspberry iced tea over the ice.
Garnish
Garnish each glass with fresh raspberries and mint leaves for an extra refreshing touch.
