Refreshing Lemon Mint Iced Tea

Today, I’m excited to share a recipe for Refreshing Lemon Mint Iced Tea. With the summer heat in full swing, this cool and citrusy drink is perfect for relaxing on the patio or enjoying a picnic in the park.

For this unique beverage, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 2 lemons
  • 10g of fresh mint leaves
  • 2 black tea bags
  • 50ml of honey
  • 1 liter of water
  • 100g of ice cubes

To prepare this refreshing drink, you’ll need the following kitchen tools:

  • knife
  • cutting board
  • saucepan
  • stirring spoon
  • pitcher

Start by slicing the lemons and washing the mint leaves. In a saucepan, bring the water to a boil and remove from heat. Add the black tea bags to the hot water and let them steep for 5 minutes. Remove the tea bags and stir in the honey until dissolved.

In a pitcher, muddle the sliced lemons and mint leaves together to release their flavors. Pour the hot tea over the lemon-mint mixture and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, place the pitcher in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to chill.

When ready to serve, fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the chilled Lemon Mint Iced Tea over the ice. Garnish with a sprig of mint or a slice of lemon for an extra pop of freshness.

This recipe makes approximately 1.2 liters of Lemon Mint Iced Tea, serving 4. Each serving weighs around 300g and contains an estimated 70 calories.

A unique tip for this recipe is to freeze some Lemon Mint Iced Tea into ice cube trays. As the ice melts, it will infuse your drink with even more flavor without diluting it.

I hope you give this Refreshing Lemon Mint Iced Tea a try and customize it to your liking. Feel free to experiment with different herbs or sweeteners to create your own signature iced tea. Enjoy!
