Citrus Mint Iced Tea
Homemade iced tea is cheaper and less sweet than the store-bought
variety.
Plus, it's full of fresh flavour and takes only minutes to make.
Garnish the glasses with orange slices and mint leaves.
6 black or green tea bags
1/2 cup (125 mL) fresh mint leaves
3 slices each orange, lemon and lime
6 cups (1.5 L) boiling water
Artificial sweetener of your choice... to taste
Ice cubes
In large measuring cup or teapot, place tea bags, mint leaves and
orange, lemon and lime slices; cover with boiling water and steep for
10 minutes.
Strain into large pitcher; add sweetener and stir until dissolved.
Serve over ice.
Makes 4 to 6 servings.
