  • Herbal Infusion: Mix with fresh mint leaves for a cooling effect.

VARIATIONS

  • Fruity Twist: Muddle berries or add pomegranate juice for a fruitier version.
  • Sparkling Iced Tea: Mix with sparkling water for a bubbly and fun drink.
  • Iced Matcha Lemon Tea: Replace brewed tea with matcha for a richer antioxidant boost.
  • Cold Brewed Tea: Steep green tea in cold water overnight for a smoother flavour.

PREPPING AND STORAGE
