Lemon tea is a popular beverage loved for its sweet and sour, refreshing taste. Particularly, this drink is excellent for cooling down on hot summer days. Let’s explore how to make lemon tea with Kamereo in the following article!
Ingredients for Making Lemon Tea
To prepare a delicious glass of lemon tea, you need the following ingredients:
- 1 tea bag
- 3 lemons
- 100g sugar
- A little ice
- 800ml filtered water
Steps to Make Delicious Lemon Tea
After gathering all the necessary ingredients, you can follow these steps to make lemon tea:
Step 1: Preparing the Lemons
Start by washing the lemons thoroughly with water, then squeeze the juice from 2 lemons and strain it to remove the seeds. Slice the remaining lemon thinly and set aside for decoration.
Step 2: Steeping the Tea
Next, pour 500ml of filtered water into a pot and bring it to a boil over medium heat for about 3 minutes. Once the water starts to boil, turn off the heat. Pour this water into a bowl and add the tea bag. Let it steep for about 5-10 minutes until the water turns dark yellow, then remove the tea bag.
Note: To avoid bitterness, do not steep the tea directly on the stove.
Step 3: Boiling the Sugar Water
Place another pot on the stove, pour in 300ml of filtered water, and bring it to a boil over medium heat for about 2 minutes. Then, add 100g of sugar and cook over medium heat for about 4 minutes until the sugar water thickens, then turn off the heat.
Note: Using boiled sugar water instead of granulated sugar helps it dissolve more easily in lemon tea.
Step 4: Mixing the Lemon Tea
To make lemon tea, pour 100ml of steeped tea into a glass. Add 50ml of sugar water and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice. Stir gently to combine the ingredients, then add ice cubes and decorate with a few thin lemon slices on the rim of the glass.
Note: Adjust the ingredient quantities to suit your family’s taste.
With just a few simple steps, you can enjoy a refreshing glass of sweet and sour lemon tea to cool down on a hot day.
Tips for Making Perfect Lemon Tea
Use Sugar Water
Sugar helps balance the sourness of the lemon, making it an essential ingredient in lemon tea. While granulated sugar can be used, boiled sugar water dissolves faster and provides a deeper sweetness, saving preparation time, especially in cafes.
Choose and Steep the Right Tea
Steep tea at the appropriate water temperature to extract the best flavor and aroma. Avoid boiling the tea, as this can make it bitter and astringent. You can use green tea leaves, tea bags, etc., but ensure they are of good quality and not expired.
Select Fresh Lemons
To choose fresh lemons, consider the following:
- Color: Opt for bright green, smooth-skinned lemons. Avoid dark green or pale yellow lemons, as they may be old and lack juiciness.
- Size: Choose small, heavy lemons with stems, as they usually have more juice and thinner skins.
- Blemishes: Prefer lemons without bruises, scars, or brown spots, which can indicate mold or pests.
Ideal Water Temperature for Brewing Tea
The ideal temperature for brewing tea is around 85-90°C. This temperature helps the tea stay clear, preserves the chlorophyll, and prevents the oxidation of tannins.
