4 servings
For the tea base
- 3 cups water
- 4 black tea bags
- 3 tbsp maple syrup
Ingredient noteAIP restricts added sweeteners, but small occasional amounts of unrefined maple syrup are accepted on the protocol; the ~2 1/4 teaspoons per serving here likely stays within that limited allowance. If you prefer to always avoid maple syrup, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ½ cup full-fat coconut milk
- 3 tbsp fresh lime juice (from about 2 limes)
- ¼ tsp fine salt
To finish
- 2 cups plain sparkling water, chilled
For serving
- ice, for serving
- lime slices or wedges, for serving (optional)
- fresh mint sprigs, for serving (optional)
