Many of us are more familiar with the hot version of lemongrass tea but have you ever considered making the tea and having it cold? Like regular iced tea?
The first time I made lemongrass iced tea was over a decade ago and that wonderful aroma and flavour has stayed with me ever since. Most of the time, I make hot lemongrass tea; my favourite “bush” tea. However, the other day, I noticed that my two lemongrass plants, were overgrown, their long, green, sharp, stalk-like leaves bending, begging to be cut. There was a lot of the lemongrass and I knew that I’d never make the tea as often or in sufficient quantity to use it up. And most people I know have their own lemongrass plants so there was no one that I could give them to. Iced tea to the rescue!
