The beverage mint green tea is refreshing and purifying, prepared cold without boiling the water, to quench your thirst during the summer season and for breaks. I learned this method from a television show several years ago, and now I often prepare it this way. As you well know, especially in summer with the great heat, we drink a lot, and the supply of drinks is never enough. Sometimes we forget to buy them or we can’t, but I think we all have tea bags in our pantry, indeed we have them for all tastes. Since I was told that green tea helps flatten the stomach and deflate, my supplies are never lacking. The aroma of fresh mint was a brilliant idea. I find it pleasant to refresh myself with this drink several times during the day. I prepare it in abundance so I can also offer it to guests who usually appreciate it.

The mint green tea beverage, which is normally prepared with hot water, I must say that I find it even more pleasant when prepared cold. It is economical compared to buying it in supermarkets as only two or three bags are enough for a quart of water, and it is easy to make. Just prepare it in advance.
