<b>6. Mint Leaves: </b> A few mints(optional, for garnish)


<h3>Production Steps </h3>


<b>1. Prepare the Ingredients: </b>


<b>Kumquats: </b> Wash them thoroughly. Slice each kumquat into thin rounds, discarding any seeds you encounter. The peel of kumquats is edible and adds a delightful zing to the tea.


<b>Lemon: </b> Wash and slice the lemon into thin rounds. You can use the whole lemon or just half, depending on your preference for lemon flavor.

Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan. Once boiling, remove it from heat.


<b>3. Steep the Tea: </b>


Place the black tea leaves or tea bags into the hot water. Allow them to steep for 3-5 minutes, depending on how strong you like your tea. After steeping, remove the tea leaves or tea bags.


<b>4. Infuse Kumquats and Lemon: </b>


Add the sliced kumquats and lemon to the hot tea. Let the mixture steep together for an additional 5 minutes. This allows the flavors of the fruit to infuse into the tea.


<b>5. Sweeten to Taste: </b>


If desired, stir in honey or sugar to taste. Start with a teaspoon and adjust according to your preference.


<b>6. Strain and Serve: </b>


Strain the tea to remove the fruit slices. Pour the tea into cups or a teapot.
