- 1 green tea bag or
- 1 tsp loose-leaf green tea
- 1 cup water filtered
- 1 tsp organic honey optional
- 1 lemon slice optional
Boil the water in a small pot and then allow it to cool for 1-2 minutes. The ideal cup of green tea should be steeped just below the boiling temperature.
Add the loose leaves or the tea bag to a cup and slowly pour over the hot water.
Allow the tea to brew for 2-3 minutes before removing the tea bag.
Add the slice of lemon or honey. Lemon can help increase the bioavailability of catechins and antioxidants in the body, making it an ideal complement to a cup of green tea.
Serve and enjoy!
