Recipe here
Make your tea:
Steep black tea bag in 250ml of boiling water for 1-3 minutes (the longer the steep, the stronger the tea flavour)
Add in the kumquat syrup and fructose (according to your own sweetness preference) and stir well until dissolved
Pour over half cup of ice, stir and enjoy!
Recommended with lychee coconut jelly or tapioca pearls for a perfect balance of sweet and tangy (recipe for tapioca pearls can be found here)
