Brew the tea while you juice the grapefruit, and this drink is ready in under ten minutes either way you choose to serve it.

Green tea and citrus are a common pairing in cleanse-focused drinks, which is why this recipe carries that tag — grapefruit brings a tart, slightly bitter brightness that balances the tea's earthiness. A little honey and grated ginger round out the flavor if you prefer it a touch sweeter and warmer-tasting.

Serve it warm on a cool morning, or pour over ice for a refreshing afternoon drink.

Letting the tea cool slightly before adding the grapefruit juice helps preserve more of the citrus's fresh flavor. This drink is easy to double if you're making a batch to keep in the fridge for the week.
