How to spice up your summer drinks with tea ice cubes?
Sunshine means aperitifs on the terrace, toes spread out and tea time in the shade of a parasol. To make this moment truly magical and bring the temperature down , you'll need a good supply of classic or flavored ice cubes.
Still or sparkling water, lemonade, homemade lemonade , tea or iced coffee, fruit juice, rosé, smoothies : they will easily dive into all your summer drinks.
To enhance your ice cubes, we suggest you play the seasonal card: opt for whole or quartered fruits like strawberries, raspberries or lemon slices. For a touch of green, you can rely on aromatic herbs from the garden: mint , basil, rosemary will do the trick perfectly!
Finally, don't hesitate to add a touch of originality and subtle floral notes with edible flowers such as borage (in small quantities), violets, pansies or even rose petals .
For even more surprising ice cubes, you can also replace the water with flavored tea (see below) or coconut milk (perfect for tropical cocktails or homemade smoothies).
What can you use instead of mint tea to make even more original ice cubes?
Are you eager to try our recipe? You should know that mint green tea doesn't have a monopoly on iced pleasures! You can also try another tea or infusion recipe that will also make a splash.
We think, for example, of the legendary taste of our Lemon-Ginger herbal tea , the subtle black tea-red fruit blend of Ça va Frui'thé or the pretty red color of the Coup de Boost hibiscus herbal tea .
When making unique ice cubes, color and flavor will be your best allies. Don't forget to add fruit, herbs, or flowers to make them look pretty and add flavor. Cheers!
