PEPPERMINT ICED TEA

Steps:

• Steep mint leaves for 5 minutes. Keep in mind, a longer steeping time of dried mint leaves may give a bitter aftertaste. If you don't have dried peppermint leaves, fresh peppermint leaves can be used. To do this, just use a handful of fresh mint leaves in place of the dried. However, fresh leaves have a sharper flavor. Most of the time, I use dried leaves. If you are using fresh mint leaves, steep for 10 minutes. Drain the leaves before the color gets too dark. Fresh mint leaves will give a brighter tea, unlike dried mint leaves.
• Add honey and stir.
• Pour the tea into 2 tall glasses filled with ice.

MINT ICED TEA

Steps:

• Brew tea in boiling water, letting steep for 10 minutes. Pour brewed tea into a serving pitcher. Add sugar and lemon, and swirl in the mint, holding it by the stems and using it to stir and dissolve the sugar. When sugar is dissolved, drop mint into pitcher and add 2 cups cold water. Refrigerate until thoroughly chilled. Strain mint out before serving and serve cold.
