Creating your refreshing Watermelon Chamomile Tea Cooler can be effortless by following these steps:
1. Prepare the Watermelon: Begin by cutting the watermelon into small cubes. You should have about 4 cups.
2. Make Chamomile Tea: In a saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Once boiling, remove it from heat. Add the chamomile tea bags and let them steep for about 5 minutes.
3. Blend Watermelon: While the tea is steeping, place the watermelon cubes in a blender. Blend until the consistency is smooth.
4. Strain the Watermelon Juice: Using a fine mesh strainer, strain the watermelon juice into a large pitcher to remove any pulp.
5. Combine with Tea: After the chamomile tea has steeped, remove the tea bags. If desired, stir in 1 tablespoon of honey for sweetness while the tea is warm. Then pour the tea into the pitcher with watermelon juice.
6. Mix Well: Stir the mixture thoroughly to combine the flavors of watermelon and chamomile tea.
7. Chill: Place the pitcher in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to chill and allow the flavors to meld.
8. Serve: Once chilled, fill glasses with the cooler and garnish with fresh mint leaves and lemon slices.
