Ingredients
Scale
- 4–5 cups water
- 6–7 black tea bags
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 cup agave nectar
- 2 cups pineapple chunks
Instructions
- Pour the water into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add the tea bags. Let steep covered about 3-5 minutes. Remove the tea bags
- Transfer the tea from the saucepan to a large mixing bowl. Stir in the baking soda and agave nectar. Add the pineapple chunks and let chill in the refrigerator for at least four hours.
- Remove pineapple chunks, pour the tea through a mesh strainer, and store in glass jars in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Notes
- You can discard the pineapple chunks, if you’d like, or much on them as a snack.
- If using frozen pineapple chunks, either let them thaw before adding them to the tea, or if still frozen, let them soak in the tea longer than four hours.
- While the recipe uses agave nectar, you can use whatever sweetener you’d like.
