- Iced tea base
To prepare a hot cup, place one tea bag in a mug and pour hot, but not boiling, water over it. Let it steep for about 5 to 10 minutes, depending on your preferred strength. For iced tea, brew a stronger batch, let it cool, and then serve over ice with a slice of lemon or a sprig of mint. You can also add a touch of honey or sugar if desired.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to black teas, this herbal infusion is caffeine-free and offers a lighter, more citrus-forward flavor profile. Its herbal base provides a different mouthfeel than pure fruit juices, with a delicate aroma that complements the lemon notes.
