Iced Lemon Tea

I am not much of a tea person and also cant stand any beverage which turns my tea and coffee to be cold except for cold coffee. But on the flip side, hubby loves tea either hot or cold so made this iced lemon tea for him on a sunny afternoon.

My Notes:

  • You can skip sugar and use 2tsp of honey
  • This is absolutely a refreshing drink for this hot summer which keeps you energertic.

  22. I grew up in New York but I never visited California. We lived in New Delhi though for 5 years and loved Indian food and chai. This lemon tea recipe is perfect for me because Sicily is the land of lemons and oranges. I'm following you from Trapani, Sicily! It's normally very sunny here but the last few days it's been raining a lot. Now we even have the stuffy scirocco. But it should be sunny and warm soon.
