Method
- Boil 1 litre of water and turn off the heat. Add the black tea bags and half the mint and steep for 4 minutes (longer turns bitter). Remove the tea bags and mint.
- Stir the sugar into the still-hot tea until dissolved.
- Squeeze 1 of the lemons into the tea and slice the other.
- Let it cool, pour into a jug with the lemon slices and chill for at least 2 hours. Serve with ice and the remaining mint leaves.
Shopping tip
Any black tea in bags works; green tea also works, steeped 3 minutes in water at 80 °C. For less sugar, sweeten with 30 g of honey.
