The strawberry - food of the blessed, attribute of the love goddesses, expression of sensuality and love of life. Wow, who knew the sweet red fruits were so symbolically charged? Sometimes they also represent sin and we like to be seduced by them into a little culinary sin. Especially since this strawberry iced tea is a relatively healthy refreshment - depending on how much sugar you put in it.
Our strawberry iced tea tastes best when chilled. So if you want to take it outside, we recommend packing it in the FLSK 500. This versatile drinking bottle has a built-in cooling function and provides you with delicious refreshments.
You need this:
-
100g strawberries

1/2 organic lemon

-
1 pinch of vanilla powder or a little vanilla pulp from the pod
-
150 ml tap water

It's that easy:
