Instructions
Strawberry Simple Syrup
- Step 1
In a small saucepan, combine the strawberries, sugar, and water. Cook over medium heat, using a wooden spoon to smash the berries with the back of a spoon.
- Step 2
Bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute. Remove the syrup from the heat and let it cool completely.
- Step 3
Once cooled, pour the syrup into a jar through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the pulp and seeds. Discard the pulp and set the syrup aside for later.

Strain the loose tea into a pitcher through a fine-mesh sieve or remove the tea bags. Let the tea cool, and then refrigerate until chilled.
