teas.co.uk · 5 min · Makes 1 cup
You'll need
- 1 tea bag of Twinings Lemon Green Tea
- 200ml freshly boiled water, cooled to around 80C (check with a thermometer)
- A slice of lemon, to taste (optional)
Method
- Boil the kettle and let it rest until around 80C for the lemon green tea, checked with a thermometer or a kettle's temperature control.
- Sit the lemon green bag in the cup and pour the water in.
- Steep for 2 minutes, no longer, to keep the leaf soft and let the lemon come through.
- Take out the lemon green bag with no squeeze; a lemon slice can go in too.
- Try it without extra lemon on the first cup to see how much is already in the blend before deciding whether to add a slice.
