Ingredients

4 servings

4 cups water
4 green tea bags
2 tbsp honey sugar or granulated sugar
3 tbsp fresh lemon juice (from about 1–2 lemons)
Ingredient note
Fruit juice contains far less fiber than whole fruit, so the lemon juice used here leaves little residue. If you prefer to always avoid lemon juice, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
2 cups ice cubes

For serving

lemon slices, for serving (optional)
Can be omitted
lemon
fresh mint sprigs, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1
Bring 4 cups of water to 175°F (80°C) in a medium saucepan — just below a simmer, with small bubbles beginning to form at the bottom. Remove from heat.
2
Add the tea bags and steep for 2–3 minutes, until the tea is a pale golden-green. Remove and discard the bags without squeezing them.
