Lime Green Tea

Submitted by Bonnie Traynor

"A very easy and delicious drink! I make this using a decaf green tea that has lemon grass. I highly recommend using it if you can. The brand I use is Good Earth. Wonderful flavor! I don't add sugar because my 2yo will drink this just the way it is, but when I do drink it by the glass I like to add 1 Splenda packet to a big glass. Give it a try! This is good when I can't get my daughter to drink anything else. I got the idea of this from recipe #27680. I didn't have the exact ingredients this time so I used what I had and normally would drink to make this. I do suggest that if you like sweet to add sweetener. Honey might even taste good too! Let me know what you think."
