While the tea cools, prepare the fruits. Take 1 cup of the sliced strawberries and all of the lime wedges (reserving some lime wedges for garnish) and place them into a sturdy mixing glass or cocktail shaker. Using a muddler, gently muddle the strawberries and lime until they release their juices and become a pulpy mixture.
