How to Brew Rose Water Iced Tea

Posted by Kimberly on Jan - 19 - 2013 with 0 Comment

Today, I wanted to create a new iced tea flavor we haven’t had in a while.

I love Rose Water, and if you’ve never tried it, and like the smell of roses, you may just like the flavor too. Rose Water does a marvelous job flavoring desserts, as well as beauty products alike.

A fabulous pink coloration can color other foods, as well as impart an aroma that’s out of this world, and a flavor that is certainly one of my favorites.

Type: Beverage Recipe
Prep Time: 5 mins
Brew Time: 5 mins
Yield: 1 gallon

The ingredients & instructions are listed below the video for measurements & directions. Please enjoy the video below.

Ingredients:

2 black tea bags – I use orange pekoe PG Tips.
2 tbsp food grade rose water
1 1/4 cups sugar
~ 16 cups water

Instructions:

Boil a kettle of water on stove.
In a large pitcher, roughly 1 gallon in size, drop in tea bags.
Once water has boiled, you may use full boiling temperature and pour entire kettle of water into pitcher, and set timer for 5 minutes to steep.
After 5 minutes is up, remove tea bags from pitcher and add rose water.
Fill pitcher up to top with either cold water or add ice cubes, if necessary. This will give you the right strength for the iced tea, as well as cool down the brew faster. Store in refrigerator and/or serve over ice.
