A Natural Detox Drink That Refreshes, Heals, and Energizes

Honey Lemon Tea isn’t just a beverage. It’s the world’s simplest remedy that does everything from soothing a sore throat to waking you up with calm energy. Warm, tangy, and naturally sweet, this drink has been a household favourite for generations.

But here’s the problem: most people make it wrong. They pour honey into boiling water or use processed sugar, killing its natural goodness.

If you want to make it the right way – organic, clean, and full of life – this guide is for you. Let’s brew Honey Lemon Tea the way nature (and your body) intended.


What Makes Organic Honey Lemon Tea So Special

Unlike regular versions made with processed honey and lemons full of chemicals, this version uses Organic Mandya ingredients,  which means:

  • No artificial sweeteners or preservatives

  • 100% natural, unheated honey

  • Farm-fresh organic lemons packed with real vitamin C

  • Traditional slow brewing for better absorption and flavor

Here’s a quick comparison to show what’s different when you go organic:

Quantity

Organic Mandya Natural Honey

2 teaspoons

Organic Lemon

1 medium

Green Tea or Black Tea Powder

1 teaspoon

Water

2 cups

Fresh Mint Leaves

4–5 leaves


Step-by-Step Recipe for Honey Lemon Tea

Step 1: Boil the Water

Heat 2 cups of clean filtered water in a pan. Avoid using an aluminium vessel to retain the natural flavours.

Step 2: Add the Tea

Once the water begins to boil, add Green Tea Powder. Let it steep for 3 to 4 minutes until the colour deepens slightly.

Pro Tip: Don’t overboil. It can turn bitter and lose antioxidants.

Step 3: Strain and Cool Slightly

Strain the tea into a cup and let it cool for about a minute. The temperature should be warm, not hot.

Step 4: Add Honey and Lemon Juice

Now add 2 teaspoons of Organic Mandya Honey and juice from one organic lemon. Stir gently.

Important: Adding honey to boiling water destroys its enzymes. Always let the tea cool slightly before mixing.

Step 5: Optional Add-ons

Add a few mint leaves or a small piece of organic ginger for a refreshing twist.

Step 6: Serve and Sip Slowly

Enjoy your soothing cup of warm Organic Honey Lemon tea. It’s the kind of comfort drink you’ll crave daily.
