Iced Green Tea Mocktail
A cocktail-like, soothing green tea with a splash of grapefruit. Adjust the sweetness to your preference when pairing with a dish.
Ingredients (serves 2):
- 1 Tbsp. sencha tea leaves
- 8 fl. oz. hot water (175°F)
- sugar to taste
- 2 cups ice
- 8 fl. oz. club soda
- 8 fl. oz. grapefruit juice
Garnish (optional):
- Mint leaves
1. Fill Zojirushi water boiler & warmer with water and set temperature to 175°F.
2. Place sencha tea leaves into a teapot.
3. When the water temperature reaches 175°F, dispense 8 fl. oz. of the hot water into the teapot. (If using a tea kettle to boil the water, pour the boiled water into a pitcher first, then pour that water into the teapot. This will cool the hot water to a suitable temperature.) Allow the tea to steep for 3-4 minutes.
4. Pour green tea to a pitcher, add sugar to taste.
5.Place ice cubes in two tall glasses, distribute green tea equally to each glass.
6. Pour club soda into each glass.
