Rooibo Bags Minutes

Rooibo Bags Minutes

Ingredients:
½ gallon cold water, divided
¼ cup Rooibos tea leaves
2 large black tea bags (each bag should make 32 ounces of tea)
2 tablespoons granulated sugar

Directions:
1. Bring 2 cups of the water to boil over high heat. Pour the boiling water into a large
pot over the Rooibos tea leaves, the tea bags and the sugar.
2. Stir and let steep for 10 minutes.
3. Remove the tea bags and then the strain the concentrated mixture into a pitcher
containing the rest of the cold water.
Chef’s Note: This method of brewing ice tea is more efficient than bringing the
entire ½ gallon of the water to a boil. When you do that, you have to wait until it
cools or add ice, which dilutes the tea.
MANGO LASSI
PREP TIME: 3 MINUTES | READY IN: 3 MINUTES
In the country of India, this is very popular as a smoothie-type beverage with a
special use—cooling the palette after a spicy meal. I like to use very ripe mangos
and unsweetened coconut cream. You can find coconut cream concentrate in either
the ethnic food or Asian aisle of your organic grocery store.
