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)
Instructions:
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.
