Hessian Coffee Blackcurrant Ice Tea

Here’s how to make your own Hessian Coffee Blackcurrant Ice Tea — a refreshing fusion of sweet, tangy blackcurrant flavours with the perfect balance of tea. This invigorating iced drink is ideal for a hot day or whenever you need a burst of fruity refreshment.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup of Earl Grey Tea (we sell both Novus and Birchall)
• 1 oz 1883 Blackcurrant Syrup (to add a rich, fruity sweetness)
• 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice (optional, for an added citrusy kick)
• Ice cubes (for serving)
• Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
• Lemon slices (optional, for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Brew Your Tea: Start by brewing 1 cup of your Earl Grey Tea. We recommend using black tea for a robust flavour. Allow the tea to cool to room temperature or refrigerate it for quicker cooling.

2. Add the 1883 Blackcurrant Syrup: In a tall glass, pour 1 oz of 1883 Blackcurrant Syrup. The syrup adds a delicious burst of sweet, tangy blackcurrant flavour that pairs wonderfully with the tea.

3. Combine the Tea & Syrup: Once your tea has cooled, pour it into the glass with the blackcurrant syrup. Stir well to mix the flavours and ensure an even blend.

4. Add Lemon Juice (Optional): For an added refreshing citrus kick, stir in 1 tbsp of fresh lemon juice. This is optional but adds a zesty contrast to the sweetness of the syrup.

5. Serve Over Ice: Fill your glass with ice cubes to keep your drink cool and refreshing.

6. Garnish & Enjoy: Top your Blackcurrant Ice Tea with fresh mint leaves and lemon slices for a beautiful, aromatic touch. You can also add a bit more syrup if you'd like a stronger flavour.
