    1. Put the sugar, mint and green tea in a jug and add 500ml boiling water. Allow the teabag to infuse for 5 mins before removing (see tip above if serving 4). Cool fully.
    2. Strain the mint tea into a food processor, discard the mint and add the pineapple and lemon juice. Blend until smooth, then pass through a sieve into a jug. Add a handful of ice to the jug and swirl until chilled.
    3. Fill 2 tall glasses with ice and mint leaves, top up with the pineapple mint tea and serve immediately.
