Crock-Pot Mint Tea
When we moved into our home a few years ago, the previous owner had chosen to plant as much mint as possible in the flower gardens. We hadn’t found much use for it, besides smelling it and admiring the ability of mint to survive anything. We have random people in our neighborhood come right up wanting to know if they can have a bit of it, and we always share because it will grow back no matter what. My family has been getting into making different herbal tea’s and of course I needed to find a way to incorporate the crock-pot into our tea making thus Crock-Pot Mint Tea. This smelled absolutely delicious and tasted just as good. Very easy to make and fun as well.

Hi Sarah…My family has drunk minted iced sweet tea forever…my favorite. We just crush some fresh mint leaves in the bottom of a pitcher, add the warm sweet tea, cool and serve over ice with lemon. It is the most refreshing drink on a hot summer day. 🙂
sounds delicious!
Perfect for the summer weather.
Mmm love sweet tea, and mint is a great addition! And it’s great whenever you can use a crockpot!
