Рецепт Cranberry-Mint Tea
Mint is grown primarily in eight states: Idaho, Indiana, Michigan, Montana, Oregon, South Dakota, Washington and Wisconsin. Wisconsin ranks 5th in the nation for production of mint oils. I found this recipe some time ago and it is really refreshing.
- Cranberry – Mint Tea
- 4 cups of water
- 1 – 12 oz. package of fresh or frozen cranberries
- 1 cup fresh mint leaves
- ½ cup sugar
- mint sprigs, for garnish
Combine 4 cups of water and cranberries in a medium saucepan and bring to boil. When cranberries begin to pop, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer mixture until cranberries are very tender, about ten minutes. Place the 1 cup of mint leaves in a pitcher or coffeepot. Set fine strainer on top of the pitcher. Pour cranberry mixture into strainer, pressing on solids to extract as much juice as possible; discard solids. Add ½ cup sugar to pitcher; stir until sugar has dissolved. Refrigerate mixture until cold. Garnish with mint sprigs and serve.
