Three Thirst Quenching Iced Beauty Tea Recipes

With the weather warming up, Iced Beauty Tea is a wonderful way to refresh and absorb the beautifying nutrients in the tea. Three of our favourite summer Beauty Iced Tea Pitcher recipes are below. They can be sipped whilst soaking with the gorgeous Soak Society bath salts, or enjoyed at your next dinner party instead of wine. I love to travel with them in a flask for extra hydration as the weather warms.

Green Goddess Detox Mojito

This spritzer provides the beauty benefits of our No. 1 Green Goddess Detox blend. St Mary’s Thistle, Schizandra and Dandelion Root work to detoxify your liver, while citrus peel and lemongrass promote lightness and radiance. The addition of mint, lime and citrus to the iced edition of our Detox blend gives your standard mojito a run for its money.

Makes 8 glasses. 

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons of No.1 Green Goddess Detox Tea
• 2 litres of water
• Handful of mint, shredded
• 1 lime sliced

Method

• Brew 3 tablespoons of No.1 Green Goddess Detox tea with about 3 cups of water. Brew for 10 minutes and then add the remaining water.
• Add sliced lime, mint and orange slices (optional). Let the tea and fruit/herbs infuse for 30 minutes or even a few hours in the fridge. 
• Pour into a glass and garnish with mint (ice is optional).

Fountain of Youth Sangria

This sangria contains the "flowers of youth", hibiscus and rosehip which are rich in antioxidants and Vitamin C to give your collagen production and immunity a boost.  The trio of beauty berries (cranberries, blueberries, goji berries) along with white tea and green tea provide a further antioxidant boost, reducing inflammation, promoting healthy skin ageing and enhancing weight loss. Kombucha tea is a probiotic-rich black tea which is naturally fermented with a living colony of bacteria and yeast. It works to improve digestion and promotes healthy gut flora.

 Makes 8 glasses.

Butterfly Pea Flower Mocktail

The beauty of this iced tea blend lies in the exotic Butterfly Pea flowers, which give the tea an enchanting deep blue hue. They have a high content of anthocyanins and quercetin to assist in boosting vitality and circulation whilst also promoting collagen production and healthy hair so you will be in mocktail bliss whilst still working on your beauty. The addition of blueberries to this tea boosts the antioxidant content to a new level!
