On a hot summer day, a jug of iced lemon tea is a refreshing drink. Lemon iced tea offers a variety of benefits, making it a refreshing choice for any time of day.

Dear Lykkers! Do you want to make it yourself? Here’s an easy recipe to make it just the way you like.

Here are some key advantages:

1.Hydration: It’s a great way to stay hydrated, especially on hot days. The combination of water and tea helps replenish fluids while offering a delicious twist.

2.Rich in Antioxidants: Tea, particularly black or green tea, contains antioxidants that can help combat oxidative stress and support overall health. Lemon adds a boost of vitamin C, further enhancing these antioxidant benefits.

3.Digestive Aid: Lemon juice can aid digestion by promoting the production of digestive enzymes. Additionally, tea can help soothe the digestive tract and reduce bloating.

4.Low in Calories: If made with minimal sweetener, lemon iced tea is a low-calorie beverage choice, making it a good option for those looking to manage their weight while still enjoying a flavorful drink.

Ingredients:

• Tea: Tea powder (like Lipton Yellow Label) or tea bags.

• Lemon: Lemon juice or lemon slices.

• Water: Filtered water for best flavor.

• Sweetener: Simple syrup, sugar, honey, or agave.

Iced lemon tea method:

1.Boil water until it bubbles, then add the tea. Let it simmer on medium heat for 2 minutes, or follow the instructions on the tea package.

2.Strain the tea through a tea strainer and stir in the sugar until it dissolves. Let it cool to room temperature.

3.You can squeeze a bit of lemon into the brewed tea or muddle some fresh lemon slices to keep the tea clear. Fill a tall glass with ice and fresh lemon slices, then pour the tea over it and enjoy!

Tips for Clear Tea:

• Avoid Over-Brewing: Follow the brewing instructions on the tea package, as different brands have different times.

• Handle Tea Bags Gently: If using tea bags, don't squeeze them hard. For loose tea, avoid pressing or stirring too much.

• Cool Quickly: Pour the tea over a lot of ice immediately after brewing, instead of letting it chill in the refrigerator.
