Drink # 4 - Lemon Mint Tea
Looking out the window today to see pouring rain & cold winds reminded me that we don't all get a hot Christmas!
So here's one that all you folk on the other side of the world who have a cold Christmas can enjoy too!
To serve 2 you'll need:
500ml water
2 Tablespoons black tea leaves
1 small lemon
6ish mint leaves
1 teaspoon agave nectar
Juice the lemon & remove most of the zest.
Tear the mint leaves.
Add all ingredients to a small pot & gently bring to the boil.
Remove from heat as soon as it has come to the boil or else the tea will taste bitter.
Strain into a mug.
Add the agave and stir well.
*** Make sure you serve in a Christmas mug ;-)
I keep getting loose leaf tea but don't have a strainer specifically for tea. I think it'll be a necessary buy.
ReplyDeleteYes def worth it! They are not expensive either!
