Mint Iced Tea

Ingredient Amount Calories
White sugar 50.4g 194kcal
Peppermint fresh 42g 29kcal

Recipe Instructions:

2 tea bags, or the equivalent in loose tea (I used English Breakfast, but you can really use any tea you like)
1 cup packed fresh mint leaves
3 to 4 tablespoons sugar (turbinado is good here, but you could also use honey, maple syrup or agave)
Lemon slices for serving

Boil a kettle of water, and put the tea and the mint into a large, heatproof pot or pitcher. Pour a quart of boiling water into the pot, add the sugar and stir until dissolved. Carefully taste a little and add more sugar if you like. Set the tea aside to cool to room temperature and then refrigerate until cold.
Strain and serve over plenty of ice with lemon wedges.
