Ingredients
Instructions
- Pour boiling water over the tea bags and steep for 5 minutes.
- Remove the tea bags and let the tea cool.
- Add sliced strawberries and thawed lemonade concentrate to the cooled tea and chill.
- Just before serving, add chilled club soda to the mixture.
- Serve over ice cubes.
Tips & Substitutions
For a refreshing twist, consider adding a few sprigs of mint to the mixture before serving. You can substitute the club soda with sparkling water if you prefer a less sweet drink. If strawberries are out of season, feel free to use frozen strawberries instead, which can add a nice chill to your iced tea. Adjust sweetness by adding more or less lemonade concentrate based on your taste.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the Strawberry Iced Tea Fizz in tall glasses over ice cubes for a refreshing summer drink. It pairs beautifully with light dishes such as a salad or the Ginger Marble Cake (Makes 18 Servings) for a delightful afternoon treat. Garnish with additional strawberry slices or a sprig of mint for an elegant finish.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover Strawberry Iced Tea Fizz in an airtight pitcher in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Avoid adding club soda until just before serving to maintain its fizz. If you do have leftovers with the soda mixed in, consume them within 24 hours for the best carbonation.
