Lemon Iced Tea

iced tea

I need to make iced tea more often! For some reason I've got a block about it being fiddly but it's not - it's super easy and really refreshing. You could make up a jug in the evening (or early morning) and have it in the fridge to drink throughout the following day. Try varying the ingredients to get a blend that suits your personal tastes - this is a lemony one I love.

Ingredients:

1 large lemon, thinly sliced
1 small handful fresh lemon balm or mint
2 large spoonfuls honey or 1/2 cup sugar - to taste
1 teabag (I used English Breakfast but you could try any sort of black or green tea)
Boiling water

Method:

Combine all ingredients in a large jug and then pour boiling water over the top.
Leave to infuse until cool.
Serve in ice filled glasses.

Enjoy!

    How much water please? How much are we making? Half a cup of sugar would be enough for quite a bit I think.
