Brew the Tea
Boil 4 cups of water in a pot. Once boiling, remove from heat and add the black tea bags. Let steep for about 5-7 minutes, depending on your desired strength.

Remove the tea bags and stir in the sugar until fully dissolved. Allow the tea to cool to room temperature.
Chill the Tea
Once cooled, refrigerate the tea for at least 1-2 hours until it is cold.
Serve
In a glass, add ice cubes, pour the chilled tea over the ice, and add lemon juice. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and lemon slices.
