Lovely and Refreshing! I made this with jasmine tea bags, Splenda and club soda. Made for 1-2-3 hit wonders.

Excellent. Like an adult soft drink. Very refreshing. At first I was afraid that the 6-min steeping would produce too muc bitterness in the tea. However, by the time the syrup was added in and the sparkling water too, it was just perfect. I wouldn't hesitate to serve this to anyone.

This is a nice, light and refreshing iced tea. I did not use any of the optional garnishes and think both mint and lemon slices would make this recipe perfect. Next time I will reduce the sugar (and probably use Splenda) and add lemon and mint as garnishes.
