Rooibos tea is steeped in hot water, combined with orange slices and chilled into an iced drink. Being caffeine-free and dairy-free, it makes a light option for a late-night sip.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Steep the Tea

5 min

Steep the rooibos tea in boiling water for 5 minutes, then remove the bags.

2

Sweeten

2 min

Stir in the honey while the tea is still hot, if using.

3

Cool to Room Temperature

20 min

Let the tea cool to room temperature for 20 minutes.

4

Chill in the Fridge

15 min

Chill the tea in the fridge for another 15 minutes.

5

Serve with Orange and Ice

3 min

Divide among glasses with the orange slices and ice, then serve.

Reminder

Do not over-steep the tea; rooibos can turn slightly astringent if left too long. If adding honey, stir it in while the tea is still warm, as it does not dissolve well once cold.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Using lemon slices instead of orange shifts the drink to something more tart and refreshing.

Çayı 20 dakika oda sıcaklığında bekletmek yerine direkt buzdolabına koysam sorun olur mu, zamanım kısıtlı oluyor bazen? Portakal dilimleri suya güzel bir tatlılık kattı, hiç şeker eklemeden bile yeterince tatlıydı.

Direkt buzdolabına koymak da işe yarar, yalnızca soğuma biraz daha uzun sürer çünkü sıcak çay buzdolabının içini de ısıtır. Aceleniz varsa bu yöntem gayet pratik bir çözüm.
