Orange Blossom Mint Refresher image

I came up with this recipe because I'm not a fan of regular iced tea. This tea has the perfect combination of freshness and sweetness; the orange blossom water gives it a distinctive flavor. People always request the recipe. -Juliana Gauss, Centennial, Colorado

This drink is good, but it's not my favorite. I think it's a little too sweet for my taste. However, I do like the combination of orange blossom and mint. I think it would be a great drink to serve at a party.
