Fresh Ginger and Lemon Infused Green Tea with Honey
Bright, piquant flavors are infused into the tea: make them as strong or subtle as you like by controlling the amount of time you allow them to brew before depressing the plunger.
Yield:4 cups
Ingredients
4 cups water
2 tablespoons honey
4 fresh lemon slices
6 peeled quarter size slices fresh ginger
2 1/2 tablespoons loose green tea
Directions
Bring the water and honey to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat.
Meanwhile, combine the lemon and ginger slices in a 5 cup tea pot. Add the tea to the infuser.
Fill the carafe with the boiling water and cover the infuser with the plunger. Allow to brew 5-6 minutes (or as desired). Slowly press the plunger down to filter the tea and end the brewing process. Pour and serve.
