Ingredients:
4 cups water
3 green tea bags
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, sliced
1/4 cup honey (or to taste)
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
Ice cubes
Lemon slices (optional, for garnish)
Directions:
Boil Water: In a medium pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Remove from heat.
Steep the Tea and Ginger: Add the green tea bags and fresh ginger slices to the hot water. Cover and let steep for 5–7 minutes, adjusting the steeping time based on your preferred tea strength.
Sweeten with Honey: Remove the tea bags and ginger slices. Stir in the honey while the tea is warm, ensuring it dissolves completely.
Add Lemon Juice: Stir in the freshly squeezed lemon juice for a bright, zesty flavor.
Chill the Tea: Allow the tea to cool to room temperature, then transfer it to the refrigerator to chill for at least 1 hour.
Serve: Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the chilled tea over the ice. Garnish with lemon slices for an extra touch, if desired.
