Sangria Tea

On the weekend we had a tea party for adults where we served tiny sanwiches and treats to our friends and family. I wanted a sangria infused with tea and came across this recipe on the web. Of course being me a tweaked it a bit. This drink was super refreshing and really yummy. Serve each glass with some of the infused fruit and enjoy.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups thinly sliced/chopped oranges, apples and peaches
  • 1 cup brandy
  • 1/4 cup loose-leaf jasmine green tea leaves or tea bags
  • 6 cups steaming water
  • 1 bottle Riesling, chilled
  • 2 tablespoons simple syrup. Add two tablespoon of sugar to two tablespoon of sugar and heat in the microwave for 10 seconds until sugar is disolved.

Instructions

  • Place the sliced fruit in a glass container and cover with the brandy and let soak in the fridge for two days. Flip over half way through soaking.
  • Heat water in a pot until just before boiled. Take off the stove and add the tea. If using loose tea make sure it is in a tea infuser.
  • Steep covered in pot, for 2 minutes.
  • Add tea to a container and chill in the fridge.
  • Add the chilled Riesling, brandied fruit, simple syrup and chilled tea in a large pitcher.
