First you will need:
- 4 organic green tea bags
- 1/2 tangerine, sliced
- fresh mint leaves
- honey (or agave) to taste
- water, just boiling
- ice
Choose a pitcher or container you will be storing your tea in. Make sure it's ok to use with very hot water. Heat up your water either in a kettle or I just use a saucepan! Make sure you don't let it continue to boil once you see the initial bubbles. Meanwhile, find a skewer or something similar and wrap your tea bags around it so that they stay in place, and let the skewer rest on the lip of the pitcher.
When the water is done, pour into pitcher, make sure your tea bags don't fall off their stick! Follow your tea's directions for steeping, usually about 4 minutes. While steeping I like to add my mint and tangerine so that the warmth brings out the flavors more. Also add your honey or like me, your agave! Stir. After the allotted time, remove the tea bags and let tea cool. Stir and serve over ice! MMMMM.... so refreshing, and so healthy!!
So glad to have found this recipe :)
Until Next Time,
