Orange Sunshine Cooler
Recipe
This recipe is really easy to make. Since our fridge is rather tiny, we prefer making a concentrated fruit tisane first, cool it down and then dilute it with cold water and lots of ice. I would also recommend making larger quantities of the concentrate as that’s what takes the longest to prepare. Depending on your fridge it’ll take 2-4 hours for it to cool down fully. If you have a massive fridge you’re welcome to try cold brewing the fruit tisane over night as that’s meant to preserve the most amount of vitamins and nutrients
Orange Sunshine Cooler
Ingredients
Tea Syrup
- 2 tbsp Orange Sunshine teapro tisane
- 1 tbsp honey
Mocktail
- 1 lemon
- thyme
- 150 ml ginger ale
Decorate
- 2 thyme stalks
- 2 lemon slices
Notes
Let it steep for 5-6 min, then put the tea into the fridge to cool down. Squeeze or crush the lemon with thyme, add ginger ale and ice cubes and give everything a good shake! Once the tea is cooled down, add a tbsp of honey. We recommend the tasty honeys from HoneyBerry. Mix the syrup and the cocktail mixture in a ratio of 1:1. Enjoy!
Health Benefits
The great thing about fruit tisanes is that they’re completely caffeine free. Therefore fruit tisanes are absolutely safe to consume by pregnant and breastfeeding women as well as small children. If you’d like to find out more about the health benefits of fruit tisanes check out this article here.
