I was wondering how the people in Budapest make their apricot iced tea so flavorful.?
It's all in how you make it...



APRICOT ICED TEA



For the tea:

6 grams Ceylon Tea

4 cups water

five 5 1/2-ounce cans apricot nectar (about 3 1/3 cups), chilled

1/2 cup chilled simple syrup, or to taste



For the simple syrup:

1 1/3 cups sugar

1 1/4 cups water



To make the tea:

Place tea in a heatproof pitcher.



In a saucepan bring water to a boil and pour over tea. Steep tea 5 minutes and remove tea leaves. Cool tea and chill, covered, until cold, about 1 hour.



Stir in nectar and syrup. Serve tea over ice in tall glasses.



To make the syrup: In a saucepan bring sugar and water to a boil, stirring, and boil until sugar is completely dissolved. Let syrup cool and chill, covered. Syrup may be made 2 weeks ahead and chilled, covered.



Makes about 8 cups.



Try it and enjoy!!!
