Calories: 42kcal
Ingredients
- 4 cups boiling water
- 1 cup packed fresh mint leaves (you can also use 3 mint tea bags if you don’t have fresh mint)
- 2 tablespoons honey (or agave or sugar)
- juice of 1 lemon
Instructions
- Pour the boiling water over the mint leaves in a pitcher. Allow the water to cool to room temperature.
- Stir in the lemon juice and honey.
- Chill in the fridge until cold. Pour over ice when ready to serve.
Notes
Hot version: Skip the chilling and enjoy it warm.
Sparkling twist: Top it off with sparkling water for a fizzy treat.
Add extra flavor: Fresh ginger slices, cucumber, or a splash of orange juice all work beautifully.
Storage: Keep any leftover tea in a covered pitcher in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just give it a stir before serving since the lemon and sweetener can settle.
