Fruit Tea Recipe | Apple, Orange, Lemon, Ginger & Mint Tea | Healthy Homemade Fruit Tea | Low Carb

Today I'm making a refreshing homemade fruit tea from scratch using fresh apple, orange, lemon, ginger, mint and black tea. I like this kind of drink because it brings fresh fruits, herbs and tea together in one simple cup. The fruits provides vitamins, fiber and natural plant compounds while black tea provides natural polyphenols and a deeper tea flavor. And the best part is we don't need to add sugar to enjoy all the natural flavor. Let's start with the fresh apple. I'm slicing it thin so it can release its flavor into the tea. Apple provides fiber and antioxidants and also add a gentle natural sweetness. Next I'm slicing fresh orange. It gives the tea a beautiful citrus aroma and refreshing flavor. As we know orange is also a natural source of vitamin C. Next I'm taking lemon and slicing it thin. Lemon adds a bright slightly tangy flavor and is another natural source of vitamin C. Next slicing the ginger into thin pieces. Ginger has traditionally been enjoyed for its warming and soothing qualities. It also commonly used to support digestion. It also gives the tea a gentle spicy flavor. Next ingredient is fresh mint. Mint gives the tea a fresh aroma and light cooling flavor that goes beautifully with the fruit and ginger. Now all our ingredients are ready. Now let's make the tea. I'm going to use my glass teapot today. I like its simple design and it's perfect for watching all the beautiful ingredients while the tea is brewing. I'm adding the apple slices, orange, lemon, ginger, mint directly into the teapot. This is not just fruit infused water. We are actually brewing the fresh fruits, ginger and mint together with black tea. Now adding 1 teaspoon of dried black tea leaves into the infuser. Now I'm pouring 2 cups of hot water. As it brews, all the flavors and aromas slowly come together. Cover the teapot and let everything steep for 10 minutes. And this is one of the favorite things about using a glass teapot. You can actually watch the beautiful color develop. Look at that lovely color. It's time to pour and enjoy the tea. You can have it warm or let it cool and serve it chilled with ice. If you prefer some sweetness, add a little honey. This homemade fruit tea is a simple way to enjoy fresh fruits, herbs and black tea together without needing added sugar. If you are looking for an easy homemade fruit tea, give this recipe a try.
