Hi friends! Is it warming up where you are? Spring for us in Arizona means warm weather and spending our time outside! And I don’t know about you, but popsicles are our ultimate tool for warm weather survival. Last year with our Zoku we made a TON of popsicles, and I have plans for them again this Summer. Did you catch our Coke Float Popsicles and our Orange Julius Popsicles last Summer? They were a big hit – with our family and our readers! I also had a personal favorite that I shared on Ask Anna last year but not here – our Sweet Tea Popsicles!
I big puffy heart drinking sweet tea during the Summer months. You might even call it an obsession. So as I was creating new and tasty popsicles last year, I thought, why not make some out of my favorite warm weather drink? The ingredients and steps are simple…
Sweet Tea Popsicles
Ingredients
- Favorite black tea
- Sugar
- Ice
Instructions
-
Bring 2 cups of water to a boil.
-
Remove from heat and pour over tea bag (I used family size).
-
Brew for 5 minutes, squeeze tea bag and discard.
-
Add 3/4 cup of sugar, stir until dissolved.
-
Add 1 cup of ice and stir until melted.
-
Pour sweet tea into popsicle molds and freeze.
And boy was I right! These Sweet Tea Popsicles are delicious!
I can’t wait until we’re into full-on popsicle making mode this year. Ok, maybe I CAN wait for 100+ degree weather. But with the 80 degree weather we already DO have we can sit back and enjoy this sweet treat outside. Are you still getting snow flurries? Well no worries, just pin this baby for May – you’ll get there! And trust me, you’ll thank me then. Have a sweet day, friends!
Love this idea! Can’t wait to make these this summer!!

This is such a great idea! Sweet tea is a staple around here during the summer so I have got to try this out!
I love tea popsicles/iced tea so much! And a great way to use up the ‘too many of x type of tea bag’ during the summer months. 🙂
I just started drinking Sweet Tea last summer and LOVE it! What a fun summer treat! Can’t wait to try it this year 🙂
I am going to have to try these. I am not a huge sweet tea fan – I drink mine unsweetened – but my sons love sweet tea and they like to make popsicles in the summer. This will be fun to try.
Oh I hope they love them, Kimberlee!
I wish I loved sweet tea as much as you! But I do love Arnold Palmers, so you might see me mixing this sweet tea with some lemonade… I think I’m ready for summer finally, went wardrobe shopping and picked up shorts, new tops, and a summery dress.
I love the idea of sweet tea popsicles! I only have sweet tea when I’m in the US, but I love it. I don’t know why I haven’t tried making it at home before… but now I have to try it as a popsicle! Thanks for sharing this post at Good Food Friday!
They all look wonderful but I especially like the tea! Will certainly try it, great idea!
Thanks, Diane!
I am a sweet tea addict, and this will not help my addiction! Found you on Two Cup Tuesday. Would love for you to come link up at our party
