    Iced Green Tea with Ginger and Mint

    3 ounces ginger, unpeeled and sliced
    1 cup mint leaves
    6 green-tea bags
    1/2 cup honey
    2 tablespoons lemon juice

    In a large saucepan over high heat, combine the ginger and 6 cups of water and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add the mint and tea bags. Cover and let steep for 15 minutes. Strain the liquid into a large pitcher or other container. Add the honey and lemon juice; stir. Chill in the refrigerator. Serve in tall glasses over ice cubes and more mint leaves.

    Tip: To frost glasses, dip the rims in water, then coarse sugar crystals.



    Yield: Makes 6 servings
