Make Tea Ice Cubes to Energize Your Smoothies
You can add flavor to your drinks by using ice cubes instead of regular ice. Do the same for breakfast or a post-workout smoothie – most already require ice, so using tea ice is an easy way to add extra flavor or a little special punch without adding more calories or a ton of ingredients.
Brew the tea as usual, let it cool to room temperature, then pour it into an ice cube tray and freeze. For a smoothie with bolder ingredients like berries, try black tea ice cubes. For a lighter, herbaceous green smoothie, use green tea cubes. Green jasmine or teas with fruit ingredients can add a sweeter floral scent to your smoothies.
There are so many tea flavors to choose from, and as long as you pick out the flavors and tea blends you already like, you can’t go wrong. Experiment with different flavor combinations to find your favorites, then store these tea cubes in the freezer.
