Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Boil Water

    In a kettle, bring 1 cup of water to a boil over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Add Green Tea Leaves

    Once the water reaches a rolling boil, remove it from heat and add 2 teaspoons of green tea leaves.

  3. 3

    Steep the Tea

    Cover and let the tea steep for 2-3 minutes. This allows the flavors and antioxidants to infuse into the water.

  4. 4

    Strain the Tea

    After steeping, strain the tea into a cup using a fine mesh strainer to remove the tea leaves.

  5. 5

    Add Sweetener and Lemon (optional)

    If desired, add 1 teaspoon of honey for sweetness and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice for a refreshing twist. Stir well to combine.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Enjoy your freshly brewed green tea hot, or let it cool and serve over ice for a refreshing iced green tea.
