Home made iced tea

I was experimenting the other day and tried a home made version of iced tea. My kids are big fans of the Lipton Iced tea that you can buy in bags from the asian foodstore. I like this one I made as I find it very refreshing, the kids aren't so sure though, probably because it's not as sweet as the powdered version. Here's the recipe I made anyway if you'd like to try it.

I used the following.......

4 lemongrass and eucalyptus tea bags
2 litres of boiling water
1 unwaxed lemon

Simply put the 4 the bags in a jug, pour over boiling water and leave to infuse.
When cooled cut the lemon in half and drop into the jug.

My version has been in the fridge for 2 days with the tea bags still in and tastes good. If you like after the flavours have infused, remove the tea bags and the lemon.
It has a slightly tart taste so you could try adding some sugar or sweetener while still hot so that it dissolves as it cools.

I intend to experiment with other recipes to see if I can get any home made versions to taste like the powdered version! I'll use this recipe as a base to start with and take it from there :0)
