ICED TEA 

We always desire for cold beverages during the hot, harsh summers. Well I am no different and ever since i stopped drinking cold drinks a year and half earlier, I am always eager to try out new beverages. Iced Tea is one of my favourites and is quite easy to make.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 cup strong black tea (I used Darjeeling Tea)
• 2 Tbsp sugar or to taste
• 2 1/2 Tbsp lemon juice
• Ice Cubes
• 8-10 mint leaves
• Thin lemon slice for garnish
• A sprig of mint for garnish

PROCEDURE:

Add the sugar and lemon juice to the tea and stir well to dissolve the sugar.

Let the tea cool down to room temperature. (You can also chill it in the refrigerator

 Now take a tall glass and put the mint leaves in and crush them to release the flavor.

Then fill the glass with ice cubes or as many as you desire.

Pour the chilled tea in the glass and garnish with a mint sprig and a thin lemon slice.
