Iced Green Tea and Green Tea with Alcohol
Other ways to enjoy green tea:
The weather is getting warmer (we hope!) So don’t limit yourself to just a hot green tea! Here are some great green iced tea recipes for you to try:
We found this delicious iced green tea recipe by Jessica Gavin: Iced green tea with lemon, lime, and fresh mint is a refreshing and revitalising beverage for those warm days. Each glass is naturally sweetened with honey and packed with antioxidants.

Why not change this Good Food recipe up by adding green teabags? https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/1364643/pimms-iced-tea
THEN we decided to add our very own favourite Qi Tea Mojito and our Qi Tea Summer Punch…. these are simply delicious on a warm day;
Qi Teas Mojito Recipe
1.5 tbsp fresh lime juice
4 large mint leaves, fresh from the garden ideally (more for garnish)
2 tsp sugar (agave can use granulated)
2 bags of green tea brewed in a large jug then chilled (OR we like to freeze our brewed green tea: then partially defrost, then crush, then pour and mix the other ingredients in...yum!)
2oz white rum
Lots of crushed ice to serve (if you didn't follow our Qi Tea Tip above)
Qi Tea Summer Punch
6 ounces brewed Qi Green Tea with Lemon
6 ounces brewed Qi Green Tea with Mint (we like to freeze our brewed green tea: then partially defrost, then crush, then pour and mix the other ingredients in...yum!)4 ounces demerara sugar (can use agave sugar)
