Foodie Friday First: Hong Kong Lemon Tea

My first…

Hong Kong lemon tea: iced tea with a refreshing lemon flavor

Yes, that is a boot mug.

Looking for a drink to cool you off this summer? Lemon tea is where it’s at. Here’s a recipe, complete with cutesy drawings. Very popular in Hong Kong, this drink uses a strong black tea as its base. Think of a dark, bitter brew counterbalanced by sweet sugar (or sometimes honey) and a squeeze of tart lemon. It’s iced tea, Asian-style.
