Instructions
Brew Peppermint Tea
Place 4 peppermint tea bags in a heat-safe pitcher and pour 3 cups of boiling water over them. Steep for 7 minutes for a strong bold minty flavor. Remove the tea bags and allow the brewed tea to cool slightly.
Add Honey
Stir in raw honey while the tea is still warm so it dissolves completely and evenly throughout the liquid. Taste the tea and add more honey one tablespoon at a time until your preferred sweetness level is reached.
Chill the Tea
Add 1 cup of cold water to the sweetened peppermint tea and stir well. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes until thoroughly chilled or pour over ice if you want to drink it right away.
Serve
Pour into tall glasses over plenty of crushed or cubed ice. Garnish each glass with a fresh mint sprig and optionally a slice of lemon for a bright citrus aroma that complements the peppermint beautifully.
