Frozen Iced Tea


June is the month to celebrate Iced Tea and no better way to celebrate than with a frozen treat inspired by Iced Tea.

3 family-sized tea bags
6 cups boiling water
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons light-colored corn syrup
6 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Lemon slices (optional)
Mint sprigs (optional)

Place tea bags in a large bowl. Pour boiling water over tea bags; steep 10 minutes. Remove and discard tea bags. Combine sugar, 1/2 cup water, and light-colored corn syrup in a saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Remove from heat; let stand 5 minutes. Add sugar mixture and fresh lemon juice to tea; stir to combine. Let cool to room temperature. Pour cooled tea mixture into a 13 x 9-inch baking dish; cover and freeze for at least 6 hours or until firm. Remove tea mixture from freezer; scrape entire mixture with a fork until fluffy. Spoon into a container; cover and freeze for up to 1 month. Garnish with lemon slices and mint sprigs, if desired.
