What you need

• 1.5 l (6 cups) water, divided

Method

Restated from the original video

1. 1

   Heat 750 ml (3 cups) of the water until boiling, then move the pan off the burner.

2. 2

   Add the tea and leave it to steep for 5-7 min. Longer steeping makes it bitter.

3. 3

   Lift out the bags or strain off the leaves.

4. 4

   Stir in the sugar while the tea is hot until it dissolves.

5. 5

   Pour into a large jug and add the rest of the water, cold.

6. 6

   Chill in the fridge until cold, about 1 hour.

7. 7

   Fill glasses with ice, pour in the tea and add a slice of lemon and a sprig of mint to each.
