Notes

  • Honey is optional; adjust quantity according to your sweetness preference or omit for a lighter beverage.
  • Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the best bright citrus flavor.
  • Guava juice can be substituted with another tropical fruit juice like passion fruit or pineapple if desired.
  • Allowing the tea to steep longer with ice results in a naturally cooling infusion without dilution.
  • For a stronger tea flavor, steep longer or add an additional tea bag.
