Yield Serves 4

5 cups water
2 1/2-inch piece of fresh ginger (unpeeled is okay), coarsely chopped
3 tablespoons honey
6 bags of green tea
Mint sprigs (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Place 2 cups water and the ginger into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in the honey. Remove the pan from heat and add the tea bags. Steep for 3 minutes, and then strain out all the solids.
  • 2. In a large pitcher combine the strained tea with the remaining 3 cups water. Chill in the refrigerator. Serve over ice, garnished with mint sprigs, if using.
