Ingredients
-
1 cup water
-
1 tea bag green tea
-
1 cup fresh pineapple chunks
-
1 tbsp fresh mint leaves, torn
-
1 tbsp honey or sugar, optional, adjust to taste
-
1 cup ice
Directions
Boil 1 cup of water in a small saucepan over medium heat.
Once the water is boiling, remove it from the heat and add the green tea bag. Let it steep for about 3-5 minutes, or until the tea reaches your desired strength.
While the tea is steeping, place the fresh pineapple chunks and torn mint leaves in a glass. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently mash them together for about 30 seconds, releasing their flavors.
After steeping, remove the tea bag and pour the hot tea over the pineapple and mint mixture. Stir in honey or sugar if desired, and mix well until dissolved.
Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature, then strain it into a clean glass to remove the pineapple chunks and mint leaves.
Fill the glass with ice and enjoy your refreshing Pineapple Mint Iced Tea!
