Steps:
- Mix all ingredients thoroughly. A food processor makes this effortless, but I managed with a blender for years, and have even stirred it together by hand when necessary-- although it's not quite as pretty when done that way.
- To enjoy: stir 2-3 heaping teaspoons into a mug of hot water and adjust to suit your own taste. Ahhh!
- This mix starts to harden in the jar after six months or so, so drink up! Servings and Yield are approximations only.

Tips for Making Lemon-Spiced Tea
- Choose high-quality tea leaves or tea bags. Loose-leaf tea will generally give you a better flavor, but tea bags are more convenient.
- Use fresh lemon zest and ginger. This will give your tea the best flavor.
- Be careful not to overheat the tea. If the water is too hot, it will make the tea bitter.
- Steep the tea for at least 5 minutes, but no longer than 10 minutes. This will give the tea time to develop its full flavor.
- Serve the tea hot or iced. You can also add honey, sugar, or milk to taste.
Conclusion
Lemon-spiced tea is a refreshing and flavorful beverage that can be enjoyed hot or iced. It is a good source of antioxidants and can help to boost your immune system. With its combination of tart lemon, warm spices, and soothing ginger, lemon-spiced tea is a perfect way to relax and unwind.
