Summer brings heat, intense sunshine, and a constant need for hydration and revitalization. Amid sugary soft drinks and iced coffees, there’s a natural, healthy, and truly enjoyable alternative: authentic homemade iced tea.

Not the store-bought kind, but the one you make yourself — with real tea leaves, fresh herbs, fruits, and a touch of creativity. Discover why ice tea might just become your favorite summer drink.


Hydration with flavor and style

Iced tea is the perfect solution when you want to drink water… but crave something more. It’s refreshing, pleasantly flavored, and can contain little to no calories — depending on the ingredients you choose.


Tip:Try green tea with lemon and fresh mint, or white tea with peach slices for a naturally sweet and wonderfully summery experience.


Antioxidants – the body’s natural boost

Tea, especially green and white varieties, is rich in valuable antioxidants that support your overall wellbeing. In summer, when sun exposure increases, these protective elements become even more important.


Gentle energy – with or without caffeine

If you’re looking for a natural energy boost without the intensity of coffee, ice matcha is a great choice. You can also go for blends with low caffeine content or completely caffeine-free options like rooibos or herbal teas such as verbena and chamomile — ideal for any time of day.


Natural flavors, zero guilt

The beauty of homemade iced tea is that you have full control. You can mix and match with:

  • Fruits: Lemon, peach, orange, berries
  • Herbs: Mint, basil, lavender
  • Spices: Fresh ginger, cinnamon, cardamom

No preservatives, no additives — just pure, natural pleasure in every sip.


Creativity without limits

Iced tea can take many forms — and each one is cooler than the last:

  • Mix it with sparkling water for a fizzy, natural soda alternative
  • Make tea-based mocktails for your summer nights
  • Use it in smoothies or ice pops for both kids and adults

Each recipe is a new opportunity for inspiration in the kitchen.
