How to Make Ginger And Lemongrass Iced Green Tea
- Cut 4 stalks of lemongrass into 2-inch lengths and gently crush them using the flat side of a large knife to release their aroma.
- In a 2-quart saucepan, combine 4 cups of water, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup thinly sliced fresh ginger, and the crushed lemongrass. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Remove from heat and immediately add 4 green tea bags (or 2 tablespoons loose leaf green tea).
- Steep for 4-5 minutes, or until the tea reaches your desired strength and color. Remove tea bags/strain loose leaf tea.
- Allow the tea to cool slightly at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
- Strain the tea through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a glass pitcher to remove solids.
- Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.
- Pour the iced tea into tall glasses filled with ice. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and enjoy!
