Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1-2 teaspoon sunrouge tea
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

Instructions

  • Put the tea and the water (cold or room temperature) in a recipient
  • Steep on the fridge over night
  • If you want a more intense pink, add some lemon juice before serving

Notes

You can also make sunrouge with hot water; just be careful not to over-steep it or you’ll get a very bitter tea!:
  1. Heat water to around 70°C (158 °F)
  2. Pour the water over the tea 
  3. Let steep for 1-2 minutes
  4. Strain the tea
