    Iced Lemon Tea Recipe, How to make ice lemon tea

    June 2, 2014 by Raks Anand 15 Comments / Jump to Recipe

    Ice lemon tea is a great thirst quencher for summer heat, homemade one just perfectly balanced to suit your taste buds.

    I drank Iced lemon tea few times when I went to cinemas. That too I got some to taste from Vj. Not habit, but I say very firmly I don’t want any drink everytime, but end up whatever Vj gets, I have few sips from his drink 😊. Few times I bought bottled iced green lemon tea and had it. I am allergic to tea, I sit like an owl in nights if I have tea, so I drink very rarely.

    Here in Singapore, they add lemon slices to the tea instead of squirting lemon juice in the tea. These slices, when slightly muddled with straw lends the fresh lemon flavour needed for a lemon tea. This helps the tea too stay clear and not cloudy. It's up to your preference.

    For this summer, I always feel like having something icy cold after the house chores. Most of the time it will be nannaari sarbath with lemon as I have the syrup. But yesterday somehow felt like having ice lemon tea. But I wanted to make use of the lemons too before they get wasted, so made this today and made a post too 😉.

    Notes

    • Add tea powder only after water boils for best results. Do not boil more than 2 minutes as it may turn strong and bitter.
    • I used larger tea granules/ leaves so if using finer tea leaves/ powder, reduce the amount. Refer the back of the pack for instructions.
    • Keep covered while the tea comes to room temperature to retain its flavor.
    • Adjust lemon juice and sugar as per your taste.Β
