Passion Fruit Iced Tea is a refreshing drink which can be made in a jiffy. Here is how to make Passion Fruit Iced tea at home.
The days are turning too warm in Bangalore. I have already started to draw the curtain of my living room during the day and water my plants twice a day. Gone are the days when I could savor all the warm and hearty soups that I love to sip on the cold winter evenings, it’s already time to move on to my iced teas and sherbets.
On a recent visit to the grocery store, I found passion fruit in the fruits section and bought a few packets. I had a few recipes in mind but an Iced tea topped the list. So the passion fruit went into this very refreshing and light iced tea.
Now take a note of the recipe for refreshing Passion Fruit Iced Tea and in case you are unable to find passion fruit around your home then you may make Mango Mint Iced Tea as the king of fruits is back in the market!
