Sweet Like Me Iced Green Tea (Non-Alcoholic)

Drinks on Me:

Sweet Like Me Iced Green Tea (Why green tea?? Because it's healthy!!)

1 gallon size pitcher
1 gallon of water
1 green tea bag
2 cups sugar (to taste, however)
Fresh mint (to taste)
2 lemons

In a large pot, heat the 1 gallon of water on the stove at high heat until it comes to a boil. Once the water is boiling, turn off heat and place the tea bag in the hot water. Let the tea bag sit in the pot until all of the water has turned into a light brown color. In the pitcher add the sugar and the fresh mint leaves. (*Johnna's tip: The amount of sugar and mint you add should be based on how sweet and minty you like your tea, I have a bit of a sweet tooth when it comes to tea, however...) Pour the water from the pot into the pitcher and stir the ingredients. Slice one of the lemons in half and squeeze the lemon juice into the pitcher, and discard the lemon. Slice the other lemon into 4 pieces and drop into the pitcher. Refrigerate for 6-8 hours and serve.

*Johnna's tip: Serve with a few spriggs of fresh mint and watch how people rave about your Sweet Like Me Iced Green Tea!
