ingredients

4 tea bags
2 cups water
1 cup sugar

directions

Use fruit-infused teas and/or tisanes. Bring the cold water, tea bags and sugar to a boil in a small saucepot.

Reduce to medium heat and allow the liquid to reduce down to a glaze.

Remove the tea bags halfway through the cooking time, so that they don't make the sauce bitter and to prevent them from sticking to the bottom.

When the reduction has become the consistency of maple syrup, remove from heat. Allow to cool.

If the sauce hardens after it cools, warm up in a double boiler or in the microwave.
