Ingredients

• 1 cup Warm water
• 1 teaspoon Honey or sugar (optional, for sweetness)
• 1 piece Food-safe fruit-flavored tea bag or herbal tea bag (optional)
• 3 pieces Edible flower petals or small fruit slices (for garnish)
• 2 pieces Ice cubes (optional, for iced pretend tea)

Directions

Step 1

Start by warming the water to a safe lukewarm temperature if desired, or simply use room-temperature water. Ensure it is not too hot for children to safely handle.

Step 2

If you are using a tea bag, let the tea bag steep in the warm water for 1-2 minutes to impart a light flavor. If not, leave the water plain or sweeten it with 1 teaspoon of honey or sugar.

Step 3

Stir the pretend tea gently to dissolve any sweetener, ensuring everything is mixed well.

Step 4

If making iced pretend tea, add 2 ice cubes to the drink to cool it. Otherwise, serve it warm or at room temperature.

Step 5

Decorate the pretend tea with edible flower petals or small fruit slices for a whimsical garnish.

Step 6

Pour the finished pretend tea into small play teacups for a fun tea party experience. Encourage the child to stir or pretend to serve the tea for extra playtime fun!
