4 servings
For the tea
- 6 cup water
- 4 black tea bags (such as english breakfast or darjeeling)
Ingredient noteBlack tea is only a FODMAP concern when brewed very strong, since natural sugar levels rise with brew strength; this recipe steeps 4 tea bags in about over 6 cups of liquid, weaker than a typical cup of tea, so a serving is likely fine on a low FODMAP diet. If you prefer to always avoid black tea bags, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 1 tbsp fresh orange zest (from about 2 medium oranges)
- ¼ cup fresh orange juice (from about 1 medium orange)
Ingredient noteFreshly squeezed orange juice is low in FODMAPs in modest amounts, and this recipe works out to about 3 teaspoons per serving, so it is likely fine.
- 4 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
For serving
- ice cubes, for serving
- orange slices or wheels, for garnish (optional)
- fresh mint sprigs, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat.
- 2
Remove the saucepan from the heat. Add the tea bags and orange zest, and steep for 5 minutes, until the tea is deep amber and fragrant.
