Celestial Seasonings Powerfully Plum….Iced

by Marye on July 7th, 2008

I was looking through the tea melange in the pantry on friday. I wanted iced tea that was flavored but different. Sometimes we get into an iced tea rut in the summer. Peach tea, raspberry tea, orange or lemon…you know how it is. God forbid that someone would think that we were boring and predictable around here.

I had picked up a box of Celestial Seasonings Powerfully Plum White Tea meaning to try it and review it. When I saw it on Friday I was pretty sure that it was going to make an amazing iced tea.

It did. Because it is a white tea we used extra tea bags. For one gallon of water we used 2 cups sugar (see how to make sweet tea) and about 10 tea bags, and let them steep longer that you normally would.

The tea is delicate and light with a distint plummy flavor. It is great as is but if you made a soda with it, half club soda/half tea it would be incredible. I can also see it with fresh berries added to it, strawberries, blueberries, etc.

Anyway, give it a try. I loved it and I think you will, too.
