Warming Honey, Ginger and Lemon Green Tea

teas.co.uk · 6 min · Serves 1

You'll need

• 1 tea bag of Tetley Green Tea with Lemon
• 200ml just off boil water cooled to about 80C (boil, then rest the kettle for roughly 90 seconds)
• 2 thin slices of fresh ginger
• 1 to 2 teaspoons honey, to taste
• Optional: an extra slice of lemon

Method

1. Drop the ginger slices into your mug. Rest the boiled kettle for about 90 seconds, then pour 100ml of roughly 80C water over the ginger and let it sit for a minute.
2. Add the tea bag and top up with another 100ml of the 80C water.
3. Steep for 2 to 3 minutes, then lift the bag out without squeezing. Leave the ginger in if you like it stronger.
4. Stir in honey to taste and add a slice of lemon. Sip while warm.
5. Stir the honey in once the cup has cooled a little; very hot water dulls honey aroma and its delicate notes.
