No alcohol needed for this relaxing green tea toddy. However if you do desire an additional dosage of heat, we like this with smoky mezcal, brandy flavoring.

Active ingredients

• 6 jasmine green tea bags
• 3/4 cup honey
• 12 sprigs mint, divided
• 1/4 pounds brandy flavoring
• 6 lemons, divided
• 12 oz. mezcal (optional)

Preparation

• Bring 3 quarts water to a boil in a medium pot. Eliminate from heat and include tea bags, honey, and 6 mint sprigs. Cover and let sit 8 minutes. Utilizing a slotted spoon, eliminate tea bags and mint, carefully pushing with a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible.

• On the other hand, piece 4 lemons in half and capture juice into a little bowl. Slice staying 2 lemons into rounds; get rid of seeds. Include lemon juice, lemon pieces, and staying 6 mint sprigs to hot toddy. Ladle into mugs and spike with 1 oz. If preferred, mezcal.
