Need a thirst quencher?
How about a good, cold homemade iced tea?
Homemade iced tea has nothing to do with commercial drinks.
It's way better, with way less sugar and zero weirdness in it!
Make the comparison by preparing your refreshing summer drink with this quick and easy recipe.
Don't worry, it's quite simple. Here is the recipe for making 1 liter of Mint and Lemon Ice Tea.
- 2 green tea bags
- 10 to 15 mint leaves
- 1 lemon
- 3 tablespoons of sugar or honey
1. Bring 1 liter of water to a boil in a saucepan or kettle.
2. Add mint leaves and green tea bags.
3. Let infuse 5 minutes for a light tea or 10 to 15 minutes for a stronger drink.
4. Add sugar or honey (for the greediest).
5. Pour the juice from half a lemon into the very hot water and stir.
6. Pour the homemade drink into a large pitcher and chill for several hours.
There you go, your homemade iced tea is already ready :-)
It's easy to do, isn't it?
And it's so much better than super chemical iced tea sodas, like Ice Tea!
You can serve your ultra-fresh tea in tall glasses to decorate with a slice of lemon.
You can also bring your drink to work, preferably in a thermos, to keep it fresh!
At less than €2 the 1 liter pitcher, homemade mint iced tea is a great way to indulge yourself with original and inexpensive refreshments this summer.
Let's be honest, this homemade brew costs almost the same as a big-box bottle of iced tea, but the taste is far from standard.
You will finally discover the flavor of real Ice Tea. No artificial colors or fragrances... That changes everything!
