Method
 

  1. In a large clear glass pitcher or jar, pour 8 cups of cold water.
  2. Add the tea bags to the pitcher, ensuring they are fully submerged.
  3. Slice the strawberries and add them to the pitcher along with the fresh mint leaves.
  4. Cover the pitcher loosely with a lid or plastic wrap and place it outside in direct sunlight for 3-4 hours to brew naturally.
  5. After the tea has brewed, remove the tea bags and gently stir in honey or sugar if desired for sweetness.
  6. Refrigerate the tea for at least 1 hour to chill and enhance the flavors.
  7. Serve over ice cubes for a refreshing drink, garnishing with additional mint or sliced strawberries if desired.

Notes

For best results, use fresh, ripe strawberries and adjust sweetness to your preference. Herbal tea bags can be used for a caffeine-free version.
