Ingredients
  

4 cups water

4 black tea bags (or green tea for a lighter flavor)

1 cup fresh pineapple chunks

1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (about 3-4 lemons)

1/4 cup honey or agave syrup (adjust for sweetness)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Ice cubes

Instructions
 

Boil Water: In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil.

    Brew Tea: Once boiling, remove from heat and steep the tea bags in the hot water for about 5-7 minutes, depending on your desired strength.

      Prepare Pineapple Puree: While the tea is steeping, in a blender, add the fresh pineapple chunks and blend until smooth. You can strain this if you prefer a smoother texture.

        Combine: Once the tea is brewed, remove the tea bags and stir in the pineapple puree, fresh lemon juice, and honey (or agave). Mix well until the honey is fully dissolved.

          Chill: Let the iced tea cool at room temperature, then transfer to the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to chill.

            Serve: Once chilled, fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the lemony pineapple iced tea over the ice.

              Garnish: Top with a few fresh mint leaves for a refreshing aroma and an extra burst of flavor.
