Ingredients
  

  • 1 teaspoon of white tea leaves
  • 1 teaspoon of green tea leaves
  • 1 cup of filtered water
  • 1 tablespoon of honey
  • 1 lemon thinly sliced
  • Ice cubes optional

Instructions
 

Step 1: Boiling Water

  • Begin by boiling one cup of filtered water. Ensure the water reaches a temperature of about 175°F (80°C), which is perfect for white and green teas. Avoid using boiling water, as it can make the tea bitter.

Step 2: Preparing The Tea Leaves

  • In a teapot or tea infuser, combine one teaspoon of white tea leaves and one teaspoon of green tea leaves. These two varieties complement each other beautifully, with the white tea providing a delicate sweetness and the green tea adding a touch of grassy notes.

Step 3: Infusion

  • Pour the hot water over the tea leaves in the teapot or infuser. Cover it and allow the tea to steep for about 2-3 minutes. Steeping for too long may result in a bitter taste, so be mindful of the time.

Step 4: Sweetening

  • Once the tea has steeped to your desired strength, remove the tea leaves and stir in one tablespoon of honey. Adjust the amount of honey to your taste preferences.

Step 5: Lemon Slices

  • For an extra burst of flavor, add a few thin slices of lemon to the tea. The lemon’s citrusy notes will complement the natural sweetness of the tea.

Step 6: Cooling

  • If you prefer a chilled tea shot, you can add ice cubes to the tea. Stir until the ice cubes melt slightly and the tea reaches your desired temperature.

Step 7: Serve

  • Pour your White Green Tea Shot into shot glasses or small teacups. Garnish with a lemon slice for an elegant touch.
  • Enjoy your White Green Tea Shot as a refreshing pick-me-up, a soothing afternoon treat, or a delightful addition to your tea-tasting sessions.
