Bonnie's Mint Green Tea

Total Time: 12 mins Preparation Time: 7 mins Cook Time: 5 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 1
  • 1 -2 teaspoon loose green tea (i like jasmine scented)
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • 5 fresh spearmint
  • 1 cup water

Recipe

  • 1 heat water, any way you please
  • 2 put some tea leaves on a filter in a mug, teacup, or glass (the latter if you want to be truly moroccan)
  • 3 place the spearmint leaves in the cup under the filter (or over if you don't like leaves floating in your tea-- i like it because it adds texture).
  • 4 let the water come to a boil, then set it aside for half a minute so it can cool slightly pour the water over the filter and let it stand for 3-5 minutes.
  • 5 lift out the filter and press the leaves with a spoon to squeeze out their juices add as much honey as you like.
  • 6 don't be shy-- honey is a healthy, wholesome sweetener. drink it up (it should already be cool enough by now).
