Strawberry Green Tea

It's almost weekend and what is a better way to celebrate it with a cold mocktail (cocktail without alcohol). Last time I had dinner with my lovely girlfriends. One of them brought us to a restaurant in Amsterdam and recommended the strawberry ice- tea, it was really good. So I try to make this at home. Wonderful concept with my favourite ingredients. Just love it!

200g strawberry 
1 lime 
15g green tea leaves + tea bag
