How to Make Iced Lemon Ginger Mint Tea

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 4 tea bags (black tea recommended), 1 inch piece of peeled and thinly sliced fresh ginger, 1/2 cup packed fresh mint leaves, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar.
  2. Pour 4 cups of boiling water over the tea bags, ginger, mint, and sugar. Cover the saucepan and let steep for 10 minutes.
  3. Remove the tea bags, ginger, and mint using a fine-mesh sieve or strainer. Pour the tea mixture into a large pitcher.
  4. Stir in the juice of 2 large lemons (about 1/2 cup lemon juice).
  5. Refrigerate the tea for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.
  6. Pour the iced tea into ice-filled glasses. Garnish with fresh mint sprigs and a lemon wedge (optional).
