Hibiscus & Orange Iced Tea Poles

by Slowood Official

Ingredients 

  • Icy Pole moulds (paper cups can also work well)
  • Freshly squeezed orange juice
  • Hibiscus blend
  • Optional: Sliced lemon and/ or berries

How to make

  1. Place 2-3 tsp of Hibiscus tea into a teapot or infuser.
  2. Add boiling water and steep for 2-3 minutes.
  3. Remove the tea leaves, but allow the tea to cool to room temperature.
  4. In the meantime, take some of the tea leaves and petals, and place them in the moulds.
  5. Once the tea has cooled, pour the tea into the moulds and freeze.
  6. If you are wanting to add orange juice for the layered effect, fill the moulds halfway, freeze, add orange juice on top and freeze again. You can add in a berry to each mould for a little more flavour, or squeeze in some fresh lemon juice for a zesty finish.
  7. Allow to freeze and enjoy with the kids on a hot day.
