Steps:
- Cut lemongrass into two-inch pieces, and crush with the flat side of a knife, or just cut each piece lengthwise a few more times like I did.
- Peel ginger and cut into thin slices.
- In a large saucepan over high heat, bring the water, lemongrass, ginger, and sugar to a boil.
- Remove saucepan from the heat, and add the green tea (if you're adding the loose tea, put it in something so you can get it out right after it's steeped, while leaving the ginger and lemongrass in). Steep for about a minute, or until it's the right color/flavor for your tastes.
- Remove the tea bags/leaves, then let sit for about 30 minutes.
- Pour the tea through a fine-mesh sieve into a pitcher.
- Refrigerate until cool - about a couple of hours.
- Pour over ice. Top with a mint sprig. And enjoy!
ICED GINGER GREEN TEA
Steps:
- Put the green tea bags into a heatproof container and pour in 1 quart boiling water. Let steep until it comes to room temperature, about 1 hour. Remove the tea bags and discard.
- While the tea is steeping, in a saucepan over medium-high heat, bring 1 cup water, the sugar, and ginger to a boil. Stir to dissolve the sugar, remove from the heat, and allow to cool to room temperature, about 1 hour. Store the tea and ginger simple syrup in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
- To serve, fill glasses with ice and pour in the tea. Sweeten, to taste, with the ginger simple syrup. Garnish with a slice of ginger. For the adults, top each with 1/2 cup prosecco, if desired.

GINGER AND LEMONGRASS ICED GREEN TEA
I'm totally in love with lemongrass. I purchased a little 4 dollar plant at my local plant nursery and in just 2 years, it's grown into quit a substantial plant. It has even survived many winter freezes. Adapted from the Lemongrass, Mint, and Ginger Iced Tea recipe from the novel, Sweet Life, by Mia King.

Tips:
