Today we will be highlighting 3 of our Detox Teas and how to enjoy them as an all day Detox Water treat. 

First off, the detox teas have to be brewed. For this there are two different ways this can be done. Just like coffee, tea can be brewed hot or it can be brewed in the popular method of cold brew. If you wish to make any of the below recipes quickly and on the go then you might prefer the option of a hot brew. This is simple, bring water to a boil and add in one or multiple if you are making a larger batch, of our Detox skinny tea bags. Let the tea steep for 3 to 5 minutes depending on how strong you would like the tea to be. After the steeping time is finished, remove the tea bags as you do not want to risk the tea becoming bitter. If you have the time, cold brew tea can be a great option, as it can produce a much smoother and balanced brew. Again, choose the amount of tea you would like to brew and place that in either a cup or pitcher. Pour in cold water and place in the refrigerator overnight, up to 6 to 8 hours. By morning you will have the perfect cup of Detox tea to jump start your day with! Both of these methods can be used for the A.M. and P.M. teas. 

Below you will find three recipes highlighting two of our A.M. Detox teas, Raspberry Peach and Tropical and one of our P.M. Detox teas, Lemon.  Each of these recipes are perfect to take on the go, especially in our very own Skinny Water Bottle!
