I want to drink more green tea for health reasons, but just could not find a hot version that I could enjoy. Then I ran across this recipe. What a great idea. I used canned-in-juice peaches since fresh are not in season and, because I wanted a little more peach flavor, added some of the juice from the can as well. I added about 2 Tbls of local honey and a squirt of lemon juice. I enjoyed one glass w/o mint and then remembered to add the mint on the second glass and I thought the mint an improvement.
I will also plan to try a mango version and a raspberry version, whatever is available.
