Sweet Green Tea Recipe


Sweet Green Tea Recipe
We had a name brand sweetened green tea this weekend with our Valentines take-out. One of the kids really likes it, but the cost is prohibitive, it is a bit too syrupy and the additives are not desireable. So, I put together this for her.

Ingredients
  • 10 green tea bags - plain or flavored
  • 8 cups water
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 4 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Directions
  1. Bring 8 cups of water to a boil and turn off the heat.
  2. Put in the tea bags. Steep for 15 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, mix together the 4 cups of water, sugar and honey. Bring to a boil and simmer until sugar is dissolved.
  4. (Not really a simple syrup, but my pot I steep the tea in won't hold anymore than 8 cups of water.)
  5. Remove the tea bags from the water and discard, don't squeeze.
  6. In a large pitcher or jug that will hold 3 quarts of liquid, combine the tea and the sugar water.
  7. Stir in the lemon juice.
  8. Put into the refrigerator to chill.

Cheaper than buying it and taste even better, I'm sure. Thanks....
