Preparation
Step 1:

Caution, the longer the tea infuses, the more bitter it gets.

Step 2:
Wash the lemon with hot water and cut it in half, saving one lemon half for later. Cut the other half into slices. Wash the mint and set aside a few leaves for the garnish. Pluck the remaining leaves and rub them between your hands to release their flavor.

Replace some of the water with ice cubes to shorten the cooling time.
Step 4:
Before serving, discard the lemon slices and mint used for infusing the tea. Cut the remaining half of the lemon into slices. Serve the iced tea in a glass or jug with fresh lemon slices, remaining mint leaves, and ice cubes.
Enjoy the refreshing flavour of summer with this delicious drink!
