Strawberry Iced Tea is a refreshing strawberry drink that is easy to make and perfect for any time of year. This iced tea drink is made with fresh strawberries but, you can try this with frozen strawberries too. If you are looking for a pink drink this is one you have to try! 

I love this time of year to make strawberry recipes and drink recipes. You can also garnish this beverage with blueberries and add your favorite milk or non-dairy milk to make it a red, white, and blue, patriotic drink.

This iced strawberry drink is the perfect refreshing drink for a hot day, for showers, for any backyard get-together, or 4th of July celebration. We made a small batch but, this drink recipe can easily be doubled or tripled to suit your party!

I have to admit I’m kind of obsessed with Starbucks refreshers. Have you tried them? My two favorites are the guava passion fruit, strawberry lemonade, and the pink drink. But, who can go there every day? If you are looking for a drink that tastes like the strawberry drinks from Starbucks you need to try this recipe and make it at home. 

When you add the milk it makes it an iced tea latte. My favorites for lattes are almond vanilla milk and vanilla soy milk. If you are new here you might remember our iced chai latte recipe? If you like chai this is an easy recipe, how to make iced chai tea

Ingredients 

Typically I’m not a big green tea drinker but, Mighty Leaf brand is really good! With this green tea with the strawberries, you don’t even notice this recipe has green tea. I haven’t tried this with black tea but, you can! If I do I’ll update you on my thoughts, but I do think it might take away from the berries taste? Or it will taste more like a southern strawberry iced tea. That’s not a bad thing though, just slightly different.

If you don’t want any muddled pulp in your drinks you can always strain it through a strainer. But, it tastes so yummy.

Notes

  • The mighty leaf is a larger tea bag. If your tea bags are smaller you may need a few to make the tea concentrate.
  • This drink recipe can easily be doubled or tripled to suit your serving size needs!
  • Inspired and slightly adapted by the recipe for Strawberry Iced Green Tea Latte page 201 of the Welcome To Buttermilk Kitchen Cookbook. Which I did receive for free to try.
  • If strawberries are out of season use frozen strawberries.
  • If you don't want any muddled pulp in your drinks you can always strain it through a strainer. But, it tastes so yummy. 

  • This recipe reminds me of southern strawberry iced tea. It's so refreshing and tasty!
