1
Prepare the Water
Boil 1 cup of fresh water in a kettle or pot until it reaches about 175°F (80°C). This temperature is ideal for green tea to avoid bitterness.
2
Steep the Tea
Place 2 teaspoons of Dragonwell green tea leaves in a teapot or infuser. Pour the hot water over the leaves and let them steep for 2-3 minutes.
3
Strain the Tea
After steeping, strain the tea to separate the leaves. Pour the tea into a teacup.

4
Add Honey
While the tea is still warm, add 1 tablespoon of honey to sweeten the tea. Stir well until fully dissolved.
5
Add Lemon Juice
Squeeze 1 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice into the tea for a refreshing citrus flavor.
6
Garnish with Mint
Add 5 fresh mint leaves to the tea for an aromatic garnish and additional flavor.
