Coconut Iced Green Tea

Here is a good way to make iced-tea that is a little different from the norm. Coconut water contains electrolytes.

Coconut Iced Green Tea

4 green tea bags
1 quart purified water
2 cups coconut water
Stevia or sweetener to taste
3 drops lemon essential oil
3 drops spearmint essential oil

Heat the water until it just starts to boil. Remove from heat and place tea bags in water. Let steep for about 5 minutes. Place drops of essential oils and stevia on bottom of a mason jar or pitcher. Pour tea into a mason jar or pitcher. Add coconut water and place in refrigerator. Serves 6-8.
