Categories     Tea     Non-Alcoholic     Kid-Friendly     Cranberry     Mint     Fall     Winter     Bon Appétit     Small Plates

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 cups water
1 12-ounce package fresh or frozen cranberries
1 cup fresh mint leaves (about 1/2 ounce)
1/2 cup sugar
Fresh mint sprigs

Steps:

  • Combine 4 cups water and cranberries in heavy medium saucepan and bring to boil. When cranberries begin to pop, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer mixture until cranberries are very tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Place 1 cup mint leaves in heat-proof pitcher or coffeepot. Set fine strainer atop pitcher. Pour cranberry mixture into strainer, pressing on solids to extract as much juice as possible; discard solids. Add 1/2 cup sugar to pitcher; stir until sugar has dissolved.
  • Refrigerate mixture until cold. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.) Garnish with mint sprigs and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh cranberries: Fresh cranberries are plump and have a deep red color. Avoid cranberries that are bruised or have soft spots.
  • Use filtered or spring water: Filtered or spring water will help to ensure that your tea has a clean, fresh taste.
  • Steep the tea for at least 5 minutes: This will allow the flavors of the cranberries and mint to fully infuse into the water.
  • Sweeten the tea to taste: If you like your tea sweet, you can add honey, maple syrup, or sugar to taste.
  • Garnish the tea with a sprig of mint: This will add a festive touch and help to enhance the flavor of the tea.

Conclusion:

Cranberry mint tea is a delicious and refreshing beverage that can be enjoyed hot or cold. It is a good source of antioxidants and vitamins, and it can help to boost your immune system. With its tart and tangy flavor, cranberry mint tea is a perfect way to enjoy the taste of the holiday season. Whether you are looking for a warm and comforting drink to sip on a cold winter day or a refreshing beverage to enjoy on a summer afternoon, cranberry mint tea is a great choice.
