For Garnish
  • optional fresh mint leaves

Method
 

  1. Pour the chilled Sprite into a tall glass or mason jar, leaving some room at the top for the tea and ice.

  1. Allow the tea to steep in the Sprite for 3-5 minutes, depending on the type of tea and your preferred strength. Black tea may require a longer steeping time compared to green or herbal teas.
  1. Remove the tea bag(s) or infuser and discard.
  1. Add ice cubes to the glass or jar until it's nearly full.
  1. If desired, garnish with fresh mint leaves and lemon slices, or add a touch of honey for sweetness.
  1. Stir the mixture gently to combine the flavors and chill the drink thoroughly.
