Ingredients
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme
- 1 medium lemon
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 2 cups water
Instructions
Rinse the fresh thyme sprigs under cool water and pat them dry with a clean towel.
Slice the lemon in half. Reserve half for squeezing and slice the other half into thin rounds.
In a small pot, bring 2 cups of water to a gentle boil over medium heat.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and add the thyme sprigs and 2-3 lemon slices to the pot.
Cover the pot with a lid and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.
Remove the pot from heat and strain the tea into two mugs to remove the thyme and lemon slices.
Add 1 teaspoon of honey to each mug and stir well. Adjust sweetness to taste if desired.
For a burst of freshness, squeeze a few drops of juice from the remaining lemon half into each mug.
Serve the tea hot, garnished with an optional lemon slice or a sprig of thyme for presentation.
