Nightshade Free Iced Green Tea with Lemon

Crisp, refreshing, and naturally free of tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, and every other nightshade concern, this iced green tea is the kind of drink that feels like a treat without requiring any ingredient detective work. Green tea is steeped at a careful 175°F rather than a rolling boil, which keeps the flavor smooth and mellow instead of bitter — a small step that makes a big difference in the final glass. A touch of honey or sugar and a generous squeeze of fresh lemon juice round everything out into something bright and just sweet enough. The lemon slices and fresh mint sprigs on top are optional, but they turn a simple pitcher of tea into something you'd happily serve at a summer gathering. It comes together with pantry staples and zero specialty shopping, which is always a win when you're already navigating a restricted ingredient list. Pour it over a tall glass of ice and enjoy the kind of effortless, crowd-pleasing refreshment that never gets old.
