Preparation of Lemongrass

1. Prepare Lemongrass

Take the fresh lemongrass stalks and cut off the tough ends. Smash the stalks with the back of a knife to release the essential oils.

Brewing the Tea

2. Boil Water

In a medium-sized pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil.

3. Add Lemongrass

Once the water is boiling, add the prepared lemongrass stalks to the pot.

4. Steep

Reduce the heat and let the lemongrass steep in the water for about 10-15 minutes, depending on how strong you want the flavor.

Finishing Touches

After steeping, strain the tea into a teapot or pitcher. Add honey or sugar to taste, and stir until dissolved.

6. Add Lemon Juice

Stir in the lemon juice for a hint of citrus flavor.

7. Serve

Serve hot as is, or let it cool and serve over ice with fresh mint leaves for a refreshing iced tea.
