Instructions
- Wash Guava and chop into wedges. You can peel the skin to get a really pink colour but the nutrients would be reduced. I do not peel guavas.
- Make a weak tea decoction and cool in the fridge.
- Take the chopped guava in a blender, pomegranate pearls, add sugar, ginger, mint and cold water and blend.
- Strain through a sieve to remove the seeds.
- Take a tall glass and pour the tea decoction in it. Add ice cubes till the top.
- Now pour the guava juice over the ice cubes. Sprinkle some ginger juliennes on the top.
- On a toothpick skewer the guava wedge, lemon ring and mint and place it on the rim.
- Your Pink Guava Iced tea is ready to sip and it is like ambrosia in this March heat.
Recipe Notes
Notes: Add a dash of Sprite or Club Soda to make a fizzy drink.
You can even add vodka instead of the tea to make a cocktail.
Peel the guava for a darker pink coloured drink.
Ginger can be optional
