Herbs Iced Teas

• 3 1/4 cups water
• 3 tablespoons jasmine pearls
• 1 1/4 cups Simple Syrup
• 3 cups fresh tangerine juice, strained (from 8 to 10 tangerines)

Bring water to a simmer in a small saucepan. Remove from heat, add jasmine pearls, and infuse for 2 1/2 minutes. Strain through a small sieve into a pitcher. Discard pearls. Let cool.
Add syrup and tangerine juice to pitcher. Divide tangerine among ice-filled glasses. (Or cover, and refrigerate for up to 3 days.)
Jasmine tea can become too tannic if allowed to steep for too long. A few minutes is sufficient to infuse the fresh tangerine with flavor.
