How to Make Mint And Lime Iced Tea
- Place 4 cups of water in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over high heat.
- Once simmering, remove from heat. Add 4 green tea bags and 1 cup of fresh mint leaves. Cover and let steep for 10 minutes.
- After 10 minutes, carefully remove and discard the tea bags and mint leaves.
- Add 1 cup of granulated sugar (or to taste) to the tea and stir until completely dissolved.
- Allow the tea to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, transfer to the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours, or until completely cold.
- Once chilled, remove the tea from the refrigerator and stir in 1/2 cup of freshly squeezed lime juice.
- Taste and adjust sweetness and lime flavor by adding more sugar or lime juice as needed.
- Serve immediately over ice. Garnish each glass with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge.
