My grandma used to prepare these in large quantities for the community, and now I’m continuing the tradition!

Instructions

1. Steep the tea: Bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Remove from heat, add tea bags, and steep for 5–7 minutes (longer for stronger tea). Discard tea bags.

2. Sweeten (if using): Stir honey or sugar into the warm tea until dissolved. Let cool to room temperature.

3. Prep the fruit: Slice strawberries, orange, and lemon while the tea cools.

4. Combine & infuse: In a large pitcher, mix the cooled tea with sliced fruit. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to 4 hours for deeper flavor).

5. Serve: Pour over ice in glasses. Garnish with mint and a citrus slice for a vibrant finish.

Sip, savor, and share the love—just like old times!

Key improvements:

• More engaging intro that honors tradition.

• Simpler ingredient list with clear formatting.

• Streamlined steps (e.g., merging fruit prep into one step).

• Warmer tone with a nostalgic closing note.
