  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 2 medium-sized citrons
– 1 cup honey (preferably raw or organic)
– 4 cups water

Instructions

Creating Honey Citron Tea from Scratch is simple when you follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare the Citron: Wash the citrons thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or pesticides.
2. Slice the Citron: Cut the citrons into thin slices. Remove any seeds you encounter.
3. Mix with Honey: In a bowl, combine the sliced citrons with honey. Mix well until all the slices are coated.
4. Let it Rest: Allow the mixture to sit for at least 30 minutes. This helps the flavors to meld together.
5. Boil Water: In a pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil.
6. Combine Mixtures: Once the water is boiling, add the honey-citron mixture to the pot.
7. Simmer: Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 15 minutes. This allows the flavors to infuse into the tea.
8. Strain: After simmering, strain the tea into a teapot or serving jug, discarding the solid pieces.
9. Serve Hot or Cold: Pour the tea into cups. You can enjoy it hot or let it cool and serve over ice.
10. Garnish: If desired, add lemon slices or mint for an extra touch of flavor and presentation.

These steps will guide you in creating this incredible tea with ease.
