Ingredients

4 pieces Red Zinger tea bags
6 cups Water
0.5 cups Fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons Honey or sugar
2 cups Ice cubes
4 pieces Lemon slices
6 leaves Fresh mint leaves

Directions

Step 1

Boil 6 cups of water in a medium-sized pot.

Step 2

Remove the pot from heat and add the 4 Red Zinger tea bags. Let the tea steep for 7-10 minutes, depending on your desired flavor strength.

Step 3

Carefully remove and discard the tea bags, squeezing any excess liquid back into the pot.

Step 4

Stir in the honey or sugar while the tea is still warm, ensuring it dissolves completely. Adjust sweetness to taste.

Step 5

Allow the tea to cool for about 15 minutes at room temperature, then stir in the fresh lemon juice.

Step 6

Fill a large pitcher with 2 cups of ice cubes, then pour the cooled tea over the ice.

Step 7

Chill the pitcher in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to ensure the tea is fully cold and flavors are melded.

Step 8

To serve, pour the iced tea into glasses filled with additional ice cubes. Garnish each glass with a lemon slice and a fresh mint leaf for added freshness.
