Yield Makes 6 1/4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 cups water
6 hibiscus tea bags
2 pounds strawberries, hulled and halved
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from about 3 lemons)
1/4 cup Simple Syrup for Lemonade and Tangerineade

Steps:

  • Bring water to a simmer in a small saucepan. Remove from heat, add tea bags, and steep for 30 minutes. Discard tea bags, and pour tea into a pitcher. Let cool completely.
  • Combine strawberries and sugar in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water. Heat until strawberries release their juices, about 25 minutes. Strain through a sieve into the pitcher. (Stir gently, but do not press strawberries or juice will become cloudy.)
  • Add lemon juice and simple syrup to the pitcher, and stir to combine. Divide juice among ice-filled glasses. (Or cover, and refrigerate for up to 3 days.)
