# Ingredients:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
Ice cubes, toss in when serving
02 -
4–6 tablespoons sugar, scoop in as much as you like
03 -
120 ml fresh mint leaves, a bit more for topping
04 -
2 cups juicy honeydew, chopped up
05 -
4 green tea bags
06 -
1 litre of water
# Instructions:
01 -
Pop some ice cubes into your glasses and pour in that honeydew mint tea. Chuck a few extra mint leaves on top if you want to make it look fancy.
02 -
Once the tea cools off, grab a big pitcher. Tip in the tea and the honeydew-mint puree. Give it a good stir so everything's mixed.
03 -
While your tea's still warm, sprinkle in your sugar. Just add enough for your taste, and make sure it melts right in.
04 -
Grab your blender and toss in the honeydew and mint leaves. Whiz it up until it's smooth and super green.
05 -
Heat up the water until it's just about boiling. Pour it over the green tea bags in something that won't melt. Let it steep for a few minutes (however strong you like it), then take out the bags and let it sit until it's not hot anymore.
# Notes:
01 -
To keep the flavors bright, blend the honeydew and mint just before mixing—that way, the melon and mint stay super fresh.
