When it comes to making the perfect roasted turkey, it doesn't get much better than this Citrus Tea-Glazed Roasted Turkey recipe. It truly is the best! Not only does it taste delicious, but the citrus tea-glaze adds a slightly sweet flavor that will impress your guests this holiday season!
Prepare the turkey by rinsing and drying (add stuffing if desired).
Rub 1 stick of butter over the entire turkey and season to taste.
Place in a roasting pan with about 1" of water, then roast for about 3 1/2 hours (or about 18 minutes per pound). The internal temperature should be 165 degrees F.
Citrus Tea-Glaze
While the turkey is roasting, make the glaze by melting the butter in a sauce pan over medium-high heat.
Add in the fresh cranberries, cooking until they soften.
While the cranberries are cooking, peel the oranges and add in to the saucepan.
Add in Milo’s Unsweet Tea, maple syrup, and brown sugar.
Cook until the glaze thickens and reduces.
Once the turkey is finished roasting and ready to serve, pour or brush the glaze over the entire turkey.
