Spiced Maple Iced Tea

A very unusual mix of flavours in this green tea recipe. The maple syrup and anise are so sweet, but is balanced by the fresh and natural taste of the green tea.

Ingredients:

• 6 tbs green tea
• 1 tbs anise, powdered
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• Lemon slices for garnish

Preparation:

Steep tea in 6 cups of hot (not quite boiling) water. Strain out tea, and add anise and maple syrup. Stir until syrup is dissolved and blended. Let cool and serve over ice, with a slice of lemon.
