Iced Green Tea with Lemon and Honey

What did the bee say to the flower?
Hello Honey!


Since I am from the south, I love to make iced tea.  This is a quick recipe for Iced Green Tea with Lemon and Honey.

Here's what you need:
boiling water
stardard size teapot
5 bags of green tea
1/2-1 lemon
1 tablespoon of honey
pitcher



Get out 5 Green tea bags.

 Take 1 tablespoon of honey.

Boil a full pot of water.  Add some of the boiling water to the honey.

Mix together.

Add remaining boiling water to a tea pot.  Let brew for at least 5 minutes before discarding bags.  After discarding bags, let sit to cool completely.

Get out a lemon.

 Juice.

Get out a pitcher (hopefully you have a prettier one than me).

Add cooled tea, honey water, and lemon juice to pitcher.  Fill remaining space with cold water.

Glass up, and garnish with lemon if you're feelin fancy (and really darlin', why wouldn't you be?).

I'm sure one of my friends can figure out a way to use this to make a cocktail.  Ready, go.
