Make the Ginger Simple Syrup: In a small saucepan, over medium heat, combine the sugar, water and ginger.

Strain before using.

In a glass bowl, heat 2 cups water for 6 minutes with the tea bags. Allow the tea to cool and then remove the tea bags. Add 1 1/3 Ginger syrup, lemon juice, and 1 cup water. In a large container or pitcher fill with ice and then pour the tea mixture over the ice and serve with a slice of lemon!
