Start by gathering fresh lemongrass stalks. You can easily find them at your local grocery store.
Wash the lemongrass thoroughly to remove any dirt. Trim the ends and cut them into small pieces.
Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan.
Once the water is boiling, add the lemongrass stalks to the pot.
Add honey, sugar, or any sweetener of your choice to taste. Stir until it’s fully dissolved.
Strain the tea into a cup to remove the lemongrass pieces.
Pour the tea into a cup, and optionally, garnish with a slice of lemon.
