Lychee Earl Grey Iced Tea


Today, I would like to share X-T's latest addiction with all of you. It all started off with his first sip of Lychee Earl Grey Tea at Pan Bakery during one of our weekend dinners. Honestly, it was really refreshing and after sipping one mouth full from his choice of drink that day, I wouldn't even want to let go of the straw!




Lychee Earl Grey Iced Tea from Pan Bakery, PJ State


Since X-T is so head-over-heels over this concoction, it gives moi a chance to experiment @ home :p




MY 1st EXPERIMENT




I started off with Earl Grey Tea and a can of lychee.






I put 1 teabag in a mug of warm water for a few minutes. Discard teabag.





Pour the tea into two tall glasses.






Add in some lychee and also fill up the cup with the lychee syrup. Ice was added.




THE VERDICT: The taste is QUITE similar to the one we had but there's STILL SOMETHING LACKING in the drink.




My 2nd ATTEMPT

This time around, I added HONEY into the concoction before dividing the tea evenly into two tall glasses.

Tips: To enhance the flavor of your tea, you also can add in Yeo's packet lychee drink into your tea instead of the lychee syrup from the can. If you want to mix, it tasted even better! :)



Mission accomplished!
