Ingredients

4 servings

4 cups water
4 green tea bags
1 tbsp fresh ginger, thinly sliced
2 tbsp honey
8 fresh mint leaves
2 cups ice cubes

For serving

1 lemon, cut into wedges (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 of the pan. Remove from heat.
2
Add the tea bags and sliced ginger to the hot water. Steep for 3 minutes, then remove and discard the tea bags. Do not steep longer, as the tea will turn bitter.
