Easy Raspberry Iced Tea

This Easy Raspberry Iced Tea recipe is a refreshingly sweet drink you’ll want to sip all summer long! Made with just 4 ingredients, you can have a large party pitcher ready with only 10 minutes of work.

It was one hot week in Maine last week and now that I’m in Florida on vacation, it’s even hotter, so thank goodness for the pool and the beach. But during these hot American summers, there’s one thing that cools me down like no other, a big ole’ glass of refreshing iced tea.

I don’t care which corner of this beautiful country you live in, there’s nothing quite like wrapping up the balmy weeks of summer with a pitcher of iced tea and watching team USA compete in the summer games in Rio. Which of the games are you most excited to watch?

Did you know you could win a trip to Colorado for a U.S. Olympic Training Camp Experience? How fun would that be? I always loved sports growing up, and Softball was my favorite. If I won a trip to the U.S. Olympic Training Camp Experience, I’d probably bring my mom since she’s the one who instilled my love for the game and sports in general in me at such a young age.

She’s also where I got my love for iced tea, after a game it was always raspberry iced tea and ice cream! Now, I love picking up my favorite bottled Gold Peak® Unsweetened Iced Tea at Shaw’s and adding a little wow factor with fun homemade fruit syrups. Raspberry Iced Tea is my absolute favorite and the produce at Shaw’s is always so fresh with a great selection, which is why I love shopping there. I love the crisp layers of black tea with the sweet tones of summer berries, it’s so refreshing.

Notes

I like pulp in my iced tea, but you can run the syrup through a fine strainer before adding to the pitcher if you don't want it.
