  1. Where do you buy American Ginseng Extract and what brand is best to use?
     
  2. Is this liquid or powdered ginseng extract? One tea bag for a half gallon?

Reviews

  1. Excellent flavor and very close to the Arizona version. I used 2 tea bags, reduced the sugar and omitted the ginseng extract. This will be a regular feature in my fridge. My husband is addicted to the Arizona Green Teas.
     
  2. Good tea! I omitted the sugar and used my regular Japanese ginseng extract.
     
  3. This is a great start - but doesn't really taste like the real thing (we had the real thing in one glass and this recipe in another and compared). This recipe is WAY sweeter - we will make it again but will cut back on a lot of the sugar. The honey flavor is slightly stronger as well. The lemon seemed unecessary - it added a tang that just isn't there with the real stuff. So I think it's a really great start but needs some tweaking :)
     
  4. Really good... Used cranberry pom green tea bags and Splenda instead of sugar. Even the husband liked this combo, and he's not an iced tea drinker.
     
  5. This is great I got a bottle at the store the other day and I said I want more but I can't go to the store today then I searched up recipes I tried this one and it tasted literally exactly the same except I used a less sugar than how much u requested cause it was a bit too much but I love this recipe definitely use it again
