4 servings
For the tea
- 6 cup water
- 4 black tea bags (such as english breakfast or darjeeling)
- 1 tbsp fresh orange zest (from about 2 medium oranges)
Ingredient noteLow Residue diets limit citrus peel because peel is high in fiber, but the orange zest here amounts to a trace per serving, so it is likely Low Residue. If you prefer to always avoid orange peel, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ¼ cup fresh orange juice (from about 1 medium orange)
Ingredient noteFruit juice contains far less fiber than whole fruit, so the orange juice used here leaves little residue. If you prefer to always avoid orange juice, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
