Instructions
Steep Chamomile Tea
Place 4 chamomile tea bags in a heat-safe pitcher and pour 3 cups of boiling water over them. Steep for 7 minutes until the tea is golden and fragrant with a strong floral aroma. Remove the tea bags carefully.
Add Honey and Vanilla
While the chamomile tea is still warm stir in raw honey until completely dissolved. Add pure vanilla extract and stir again until fully incorporated. The warmth of the tea will help bloom the vanilla aroma beautifully.
Cool and Combine
Add 1 cup of cold water to the tea mixture and stir well. Allow the tea to cool slightly at room temperature before transferring to the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes.
Serve Over Ice
Pour the chilled chamomile vanilla iced tea over glasses filled with ice. Garnish with a chamomile flower or a thin vanilla bean pod strip for an elegant aromatic and visually stunning presentation.
