teas.co.uk · 8 min plus cooling · Serves 2
You'll need
- 2 tea bags of Tetley Pure Green Tea
- 200ml just off boil water cooled to about 80C (boil, then rest the kettle for roughly 90 seconds)
- Juice of 1 lemon (about 40ml)
- 2 teaspoons honey or sugar, to taste
- 300ml chilled sparkling or still water
- Ice, plus lemon slices and mint to serve
Method
- Rest the boiled kettle for about 90 seconds, then steep two bags in 200ml of roughly 80C water for 3 minutes. Lift the bags out without squeezing and let the tea cool.
- Stir the honey into the still warm tea until it dissolves, then add the lemon juice.
- Chill the sweetened tea, then pour into a jug over plenty of ice.
- Top with the sparkling or still water, stir gently, and serve with lemon slices and mint.
- The sweetened tea base keeps chilled for up to 3 days; add the sparkling water only at serving so the fizz lasts.
