You can make this with any tea. The chamomile is a wonderful treat if you can't sleep at night. For guests, I like to serve this in a tea cup with a thin crisp cookie and a slice of lemon for garnish. Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups water |
1/4 cup camomile tea leaves or 4 tea bags |
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (or to taste) |
1/4 cup honey (or to taste) |
Directions:
1. In a medium saucepan boil water. Once boiling, remove from heat, add tea and steep for 5-10 minutes depending upon your own taste.
2. Strain tea into a bowl add the lemonjice and honey. Stirr to dissolve.
3. Pour into serving bowl or 2 deep roasting pan and freeze for 6-8 hours stirring/scraping the mixture 2 or 3 times with a fork.
4. Just before serving place in the refrigerator for 5 minutes and scrape ice crystals with a spoon or fork.
