Mint Iced Green Tea
What you’ll need:
1 small pot.
5 of these tea bags.
1 2 quart sized pitcher filled halfway with ice.
Fill the small pot with water and put on the stove to boil. Once it starts boiling, turn off the water and add the 5 tea bags. Let steep for around a minute or so, then throw the teabags out. Dump the pot into the pitcher. Fill the rest of the pitcher with water from the tap, then stir it all up [to mix the water with the tea]. I don’t recommend adding sugar or lemon; it tastes amazing as is. The hint of mint really helps the taste, and because it’s green tea, it will boost your metabolism.

Low Cal Chai
Contents:
2 chai tea bags. [I highly recommend this brand & tea]
1 tbs of honey.
4 tbs of skim/soy/almond milk.
1 packet of calorie free sweetener. [I recommend splenda] [OPTIONAL!]
Heat up your teapot as normal, and pour into a 16 fl oz travel mug [if only making a mug sized, use 1 tea bag and cut the rest of the ingredients in half] Steep the two tea bags for a minute or so, then add the rest of the ingredients. Stir well and drink! I personally think it doesn’t need the extra sweetener due to the honey, but some prefer it sweeter, so use all the calorie free sweetener you want.
