Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Refreshing Citrus Green Tea with Honey.
Step 1
Start by taking a vibrant piece of lemon zest, about two inches long, and slice it into thin slivers. Place these fragrant slivers into a large cup or mug, allowing their essential oils to infuse your drink with a zesty aroma.
Step 2
Next, pour two teaspoons of boiling water over the lemon zest. Let it steep for about three minutes, giving the zest time to release its bright flavor into the water.
Step 3
Once the lemon zest has steeped, stir in two teaspoons of green tea powder. Follow this with three-quarters of a cup of hot water, mixing everything together until the tea powder is fully dissolved.
Step 4
Now, it's time to add a burst of citrus! Pour in half a cup of freshly squeezed grapefruit juice and three tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice. This will elevate the drink with a refreshing tang.
Step 5
To finish off this delightful concoction, add a teaspoon of honey. Stir well to combine all the flavors, ensuring the honey is fully dissolved and sweetens the tea just right.
Step 6
Your refreshing citrus green tea is now ready to be enjoyed! Serve it warm or chilled, and savor the delightful blend of flavors.
