Step-by-Step Instructions
- Start by boiling 4 cups of water in a pot over medium heat until bubbling. Once it reaches a rolling boil, remove it from heat and add green tea bags. Let them steep for 3-5 minutes until the tea becomes a rich amber color, then remove the bags. Allow the tea to cool to room temperature.
- While the tea cools, take a ripe honeydew melon, diced into chunks, and fresh mint leaves. Place them in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour the puree into a measuring cup or bowl, ready to blend with the steeped tea.
- Once the tea has cooled, return it to the pot and add sugar while it’s still warm. Stir gently until the sugar fully dissolves, ensuring a perfect flavor balance for your refreshing Iced Honeydew Mint Tea.
- In a large pitcher, combine the cooled sweetened tea and the honeydew-mint puree. Stir the mixture thoroughly for even distribution of flavors. Let it sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Fill tall glasses with ice cubes. Pour the vibrant mixture over the ice, watching it swirl and mingle. Garnish each glass with a sprig of fresh mint.
