Lemon Grass Tea
12 c water
4-5 stalks lemon grass (bottom 12" of plant, not blades)
1 c sugar
Cut lemon grass stalks into 3-4" long pieces. Put the pieces in a 6 quart
pot and add water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce
heat to medium and keep at a low boil until water volume is reduced by 1/3
and tea is a golden brown color. Remove from heat and allow to steep 5-10
minutes. Add 1 c sugar for very sweet tea (or less to taste) and serve hot,
or chill and serve as iced tea.
