How to Make Iced Green Tea With Ginger And Mint

  1. Combine 1 inch piece of peeled and thinly sliced ginger and 6 cups of water in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat.
  2. Remove from heat. Add 1 cup of packed fresh mint leaves and 4 green tea bags.
  3. Cover and let steep for 15 minutes to allow the tea to infuse with the ginger and mint.
  4. Strain the tea mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large pitcher, discarding the solids.
  5. Stir in 1/4 cup honey (or to taste) and 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice.
  6. Stir well to combine the sweetener and lemon juice evenly.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.
  8. Serve over ice in tall glasses. Garnish with fresh mint sprigs and a lemon wedge (optional).
