Step 1
Prepare your favourite tea, making it extra strong (see chefs tips for ways to make the perfect strong tea.)
Step 2
Remove the tea bags from the tea after 5 to 6 minutes.
Step 3
In a medium bowl add in the Redpath® Granulated Sugar. Pour in the hot tea and whisk until the sugar is dissolved.
Step 4
Now you can chill this tea syrup in an airtight container for up to a week, or you can use it right away while it's still warm.
Step 5
To prepare the sodas, fill your 4 glasses to the top with ice cubes. Measure ¼ cup (60 ml) of tea syrup and pour it over the ice into your glass. Repeat with the other three glasses.
Step 6
Using the freshly opened soda water, fill all 4 glasses almost all the way to the top, leaving enough room to stir in soda.
Step 7
Place in a straw, give the glasses a good swirl to mix the syrup with the soda.
Step 8
You may find the soda to be too sweet, or not sweet enough, so try mixing a few glasses for yourself before serving to your guests. You’ll have enough syrup to do a few test glasses so don’t worry about running out.
