• Prep Time: 10 minutes
• Total Time: 10 minutes
• Servings: 4 cups
• Skill Level: Easy

• 4 cups of cold brewed green tea
• 1 large cucumber, thinly sliced
• 2 limes, juiced
• 2 tablespoons of honey (or more to taste)
• Ice cubes
• Fresh mint leaves for garnish

1. Begin with the cold brewed green tea. The soothing, slightly earthy aroma sets the perfect base for our refreshing drink.
2. In a large jug, combine the cold brewed green tea and freshly squeezed lime juice. The tangy citrus scent will already start to fill the air, invigorating your senses.
3. Add the honey, stirring until it’s completely dissolved. This touch of sweetness will beautifully balance out the tart lime.
4. Gently stir in the thin cucumber slices. They’ll release a subtle, fresh flavor, adding another delightful layer to your tea.
5. Fill each serving glass with ice cubes, then pour the tea mixture over the top.
6. Garnish with fresh mint leaves – the aroma and vibrant green hue make for a beautifully inviting presentation.

• If you are out of honey, agave syrup or a few drops of stevia make great substitutes.
• For a sparkling twist, use half green tea and half carbonated water.
• Serve in a chilled glass for extra refreshment on hot days.
• This tea is perfect for a family gathering or a picnic; bring it along in a thermos to keep it cool.

• Any leftover tea can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days in an airtight container.
• If limes are not in season, lemons can be used as a substitute with a slightly different yet equally delightful flavor.
• Cane sugar or coconut sugar can also replace honey if preferred.

• This Lime Cucumber Tea pairs beautifully with light snacks such as cucumber sandwiches, a refreshing fruit salad, or a plate of assorted cheese and crackers.
• For dessert, try it alongside lemon sorbet or a light, airy angel food cake.
