Sweet Mint

ICED TEA

There's nothing more refreshing than a glass of sweet mint iced tea on a hot summer's day. And this version is paleo-friendly, so it's guilt-free, too!

INGREDIENTS

– 2 fresh mint sprigs leaves removed from stem – 2 cups filtered water – 2 teaspoons coconut sugar or honey – 2 bags green tea

STEP 1

Pour water into small saucepan and submerge mint in water.

Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, remove from heat and immediately stir in coconut sugar or honey, stirring until completely dissolved.

Add tea bags to pot and cover, allowing to steep for 15 minutes.

Strain into glasses, allow to cool then add ice and enjoy!

Recipe can be made in large quantities as well to serve a crowd. To do so, increase water to 25 cups, use two whole bunches of mint (leaves removed from stems and washed), get yourself a very large pot with a tight fitting lid, 1 ½ cups of coconut sugar or honey, and about 25 green tea bags.
