Exact quantities, then the method.
The lemongrass and ginger in Tropical Sun Wellbeing make it a natural for a Thai-style cooler. Brew it strong, chill it, then lengthen it with soda, lime and cucumber over ice. The result is aromatic and savoury-green, alcohol-free, and as refreshing as anything you would order at a Thai restaurant.

You'll need
- 3 tea bags of Tropical Sun Wellbeing
- 300ml freshly boiled water (100C)
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
- 200ml chilled soda water
- 1 lime, half juiced and half sliced
- A few slices of cucumber
- Plenty of ice
Method
- Brew the lemongrass and ginger strong: the 3 bags stay 6 minutes in the boiled water, and out they come.
- If you use honey, stir it into the warm lemongrass brew, then cool and chill.
- Put ice and a few cucumber slices in two tall glasses and pour the chilled lemongrass over, with room left at the top.
- Lime juice, then chilled soda water to top each lemongrass glass; stir it gently.
- Lime slices, then serve the lemongrass spritz.
- Fresh Thai basil in place of regular mint gives a more complex, aniseed-spiced finish that suits the lemongrass and ginger well.
