A Guide to Refreshing DIY Drink with Black Tea and Sprite

Black tea and Sprite create one of the most underrated combinations for a refreshing DIY drink. When prepared correctly, the pairing produces an economical and flavorful beverage. Below, we share several options that we recommend.

Black Tea Bags and Sprite

The simplest way to combine Sprite with black tea involves using tea bags. We recommend our black tea because its honey flavor notes pair particularly well with carbonated soda.

Ingredients

For this recipe, you will need Gourmet Black Tea Bags from Qiful Life, cold lemon-flavored Sprite, a glass of any size, and a teaspoon.

Steps to Making Black Tea With Sprite

Prepare one can of cold Sprite and one black tea bag. Boil 100 milliliters of water, pour it into a glass, and add the tea bag. Allow the tea to steep for approximately two to three minutes.

Pour the cold Sprite into another glass until it fills three-fifths of the cup. The ideal ratio of tea to Sprite is 2:3. Slowly add the black tea until the glass reaches four-fifths full or nearly full. Pouring the tea slowly creates a clear division between the two liquids.

This easy Black Tea Sprite recipe combines the best of both worlds. The fresh aroma of honey-flavored black tea and the carbonation of Sprite create a refreshing summer drink.

Alternative Sprite and Tea Recipes

For a more floral tea flavor, try combining Gardenia black tea with soda.

Gardenia Black Tea and Sprite Ingredients

For this recipe, you will need Gardenia black tea, a tall glass, unsweetened soda such as sugar-free Sprite, and lemon slices.

Steps

Prepare one lemon, one can of unsweetened soda, and four to five grams of Gardenia black tea. Brew the tea with 100 milliliters of boiling water. After three minutes, pour the tea into a cup.

Allow the tea to cool, pour it into an ice mold, and freeze it. Remove the frozen tea cubes and place them in a cold-brew cup. Add Sprite and garnish the edge of the cup with a lemon slice.

This version creates an unsweetened tea beverage. If you prefer a sweeter drink, add honey according to your taste. The combination of fresh lemon and cold soda allows the aroma of Gardenia black tea to infuse the water slowly.

Higher-quality tea produces a more refreshing and organic-tasting result.
