**Ginger tea is a delicious and refreshing drink that can be enjoyed hot or cold. It is made with fresh ginger, water, and sweetener, and can be flavored with a variety of other ingredients, such as lemon, honey, or mint. Iced ginger tea is a perfect way to cool down on a hot day, and it is also a great source of antioxidants and other nutrients. This article provides two recipes for iced ginger tea: a classic recipe and a spicy recipe. Both recipes are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.**
**The classic iced ginger tea recipe is made with fresh ginger, water, sugar, and lemon juice. The spicy iced ginger tea recipe adds a kick of heat with the addition of cayenne pepper. Both recipes can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. To serve, simply pour the tea over ice and enjoy.**
LEMON-GINGER ICED TEA
This Arnold Palmer has just a little kick to it because of the ginger. But it's so good! It's not intended to be a syrupy, sweet tea, so don't load it with sugar. Keep the taste of the ginger as the focal point.

Steps:
- Mix together all ingredients and serve in a tall glass, on the rocks, with candied ginger as a garnish.
Tips:
- Use fresh ginger: Fresh ginger has a more intense flavor than ground ginger, and it will give your tea a more vibrant taste.
- Peel the ginger before slicing it: The skin of the ginger can be tough and bitter, so it's best to remove it before brewing your tea.
- Use a variety of sweeteners: Honey, sugar, and stevia are all popular sweeteners that can be added to iced ginger tea. Experiment with different types of sweeteners to find one that you like the best.
- Add other flavors: Lemon, lime, mint, and cucumber are all great additions to iced ginger tea. Experiment with different combinations of flavors to create a tea that you love.
- Serve your tea immediately: Iced ginger tea is best enjoyed fresh. If you let it sit for too long, the flavors will start to fade.
