Ingredients

  • 8 cups water

  • cup white sugar

  • 3 family-size tea bags

  • 1 pound strawberries, sliced

  • ice cubes

Directions

  1. Combine water, sugar, and tea bags in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 4 minutes. Allow 25 minutes for pressure to build.

  2. Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Remove tea bags using a slotted spoon.

  3. Add strawberries to a blender and puree until smooth.

  4. Allow tea to cool completely. Stir strawberry puree into the cooled tea and serve over ice.

Cook's Note:

Reduce sugar to 1/4 cup if you are using very ripe strawberries.
