I am from the South. There are some signature things that this area is known for, an affection for front porch sitting, a deep love of biscuits and gravy, and sweet tea. Iced sweet tea to be exact, so sweet you’d likely mistake it for syrup.
Because iced sweet tea is the beverage of choice here I did not grow up with an appreciation for hot tea. Actually, hot tea was that annoying obstacle you had to overcome in order to get cold tea! So I did not know the wonders of green tea, chai, Earl Grey, or other fancy teas until I was much older.
Boy, was I missing out!
These Raspberry Green Tea Popsicles are perfect for this time of year. They are definitely on the lighter side of things so you can indulge in a nice cold sweet treat without all the calories of a big ice cream dish. These Popsicles have a double dose of raspberries because you add raspberries to the tea while it steeps so it has that beautiful red color and then an extra dose of raspberries right in the Popsicle molds.
These Raspberry Green Tea Popsicles will be your new Spring addiction!
