Every week we pull together some great Canadian recipes from Canadian food bloggers around the web featuring one main ingredient or dish. This week, we're all about helping you cool down with a drink that's synonymous with summer: iced tea!
Brewing a cup of tea is a no-brainer, especially in the cooler months of the year. But, when it's hot outside it might be difficult to think about boiling water and holding a steaming cup between our hands.
Yet, the warmer months are also perfect for tea! We just need to be patient, let it cool down and enjoy the reward of a tasty, refreshing beverage that, more often than not, makes us feel pampered.
Whether your tea of choice is black, green, white or rooibos, we've got an iced tea recipe that's perfect for you. You can even spike it with something a little more adult if you like - we won't tell!
Curious, aren't you? Well, check out the gallery below and enjoy a selection of 13 iced tea recipes that span from a classic tea latte to a spiked peach iced tea!
