Put the finely chopped lime together with the chopped mint leaves (add sugar now, if desired) in a glass and mix. Press the limes lightly with a spoon. Add ice until the glass is about 2/3 full. Pour hot tea into the glass. Decorate with a mint leaf, let it steep for a moment and enjoy.
Tip: Some people make the mistake of dosing the tea too strongly / weakly or pouring it too hot. Ideal for this recipe would be 2.5 teaspoons in 250 ml of water (strong tea). The temperature of the water for infusion should always be around 80-60 ° C for green tea.
