Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
Wash all fruits thoroughly using salt for added cleanliness. Slice the kumquats and lemons, halve the passion fruits, and prepare the oranges—slice two and peel and crush the remaining four.
Step 2: Extract the Juices
In a large container, scoop out the passion fruit pulp, squeeze juice from the kumquats and lemons, and crush the peeled oranges. Mix everything together and refrigerate.
Step 3: Make the Syrup
Boil 2.5 liters of water in a kettle or pot. Dissolve the sugar in the hot water and let it cool to room temperature. Avoid adding sugar directly to the fruit mixture as high temperatures can affect the flavor.
Step 4: Brew the Green Tea
Steep green tea leaves in hot water for 3–5 minutes. Strain the tea and allow it to cool completely before use.
Step 5: Combine and Serve
Mix the cooled green tea and sugar water with the fruit juice blend. Stir well, add ice cubes, and serve immediately for a refreshing treat.
Can I use black tea instead of green tea?
Yes, black tea can be a great substitute for a stronger flavor.
How long can this tea be stored?
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
Can I adjust the sweetness?
Absolutely! Start with less sugar and adjust to taste.
