We just want to sip something “thanda thanda” all day long during Summer. Summer season calls for yummy drinks that are quick to make and tastes yum. Iced tea is one of my favorite drinks to sip during the Summer season. There are so many varieties of Iced tea that you can try from.
Orange iced tea is something I tried for the first time and I really liked it. Easy and quick to make. Make it for your kids or can be served to your guests during the evening or for your kitty party.
I absolutely love Iced teas, maybe because I am a chai lover and can have tea/chai in any form. I love Peach iced tea, lemon iced tea and blueberry one. It’s been ages I haven’t tried anything new so thought why not make one for myself and experiment with the flavor.
I have used normal tea and sugar in making this. If you want to try, you can use jaggery too but the taste will differ a bit. Also, use freshly squeezed orange juice or tetra pack orange juice can be used. I have used the Real orange juice as fresh oranges weren’t available in my kitchen.
Aren’t this look so colorful, vibrant and a mood lifter? I love serving them in these jar bottles. If you Keventers bottles or any other milkshake bottles, you can totally use them too. Comment below and let me know if you love Iced teas too.
These glass bottles are easily available online. Check these:

- Strain this tea water and once cold add lemon juice and sugar to it. {If you are using real orange juice, then add sugar accordingly as it already has sugar}. This mixture can be stored in a bottle and can be used as and when required.
- In a mixing tumbler, take orange juice, add tea mixture as required and lots of crushed ice cubes.
- Stir it well. Taste it and adjust the ratio according to your taste.
- Freshly squeezed orange juice works great as well. You just have to add sugar accordingly. If the oranges are sour, add more or else use it just like that.
- Like this, you can make lemon iced tea, blueberry and try with different variants.
- Add lemon juice according to your taste.
