How to select and buy ingredients
- You can choose any type of green or black dry tea you like!
- Using brown sugar will give the tea a nicer color; if not available, white sugar can be used instead.
- Choose kumquats that are green mixed with yellow, plump, fresh, and not bruised. Avoid selecting immature green kumquats as they have less juice and can make the tea bitter.
How to Make Lemon Tea

Boil Tea
Place a pot on the stove, add 2.1 liters of water to the pot, set the heat to high to bring it to a boil. When the water is boiling, add the tea, cover the pot, reduce the heat to medium, and simmer for about 2 minutes.
Then turn off the heat and let the tea steep for about 10 – 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes, open the pot lid, strain through a sieve to collect the tea water, discarding the tea leaves. While the tea is still hot, add 400g of sugar to make it easier to dissolve. Stir well until the sugar is dissolved.
You can pour the tea water into another bowl to remove the small tea sediment that settles at the bottom. Cover it tightly to prevent dust from entering and wait for it to cool completely.
Tip: Covering tightly and letting it cool will help retain the aroma of the tea.

Mix Lemon Tea
Wash the lemons and soak them in salt water for about 10 minutes to clean them, then remove and let them drain as you will be using the lemon peels.
For every 300ml glass of tea, use about 3 medium-sized lemons.
Slice each lemon into thin slices separately.
Squeeze the juice from the remaining 3 parts, discarding the seeds, and add it to the glass of tea, stirring well.
Add the 3 slices of lemon you cut into the glass, add ice, and it’s ready to enjoy.
