BLACK TEA LEMONADE

Black Tea Lemonade image

We love Black Tea Lemonade from Starbucks, and I wanted to figure out how to make it at home, so I started searching a myriad of websites to get some ideas on how to start. This is our version which we find very refreshing on a hot day, or in the evening instead of coffee/tea. This needs time to cool, so make it ahead.

Time 31m

Yield 1 2 litre Juice Jug, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

7 tea bags (I use Earl Grey as we like the Bergamont flavor)
1/2 cup white sugar
5 cups water
4 -5 cups ice cubes
6 lemons, cut in 1/2 and drained of juices to make 1 cup
3 sprigs mint or 2 -3 tablespoons crushed dried mint

Steps:

Boil 5 cups of water in tea kettle, then transfer boiling water to saucepan.
Add sugar, mix till disolved.
Add teabags, and mint (if desired), and bring back to boil.
Take off burner, and let tea bags and mint steep for 7-10 minutes, depending upon how strong you like your tea.
Discard tea bags and mint.
Add Lemon Juice and stir well.
Add ice cubes, and they will begin melting right away.
Stir, then pour contents into juice jug - ice cubes don't have to finish melting, they will do so in the jug.
Chill well; if you are in a hurry, serve over several ice cubes in a glass.
The flavor is quite different when adding the mint, so try it both ways to see which way you prefer it.
Note: This can also be made with limes, all other ingredients and measurements remain the same.

Tips:

Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the best flavor. Bottled lemon juice can be used, but it may not be as tart or flavorful.
If you don't have a cheesecloth, you can use a fine-mesh strainer or a coffee filter to strain the tea.
Sweeten the lemonade to taste. You can use sugar, honey, or another sweetener.
Garnish the lemonade with a lemon slice or a sprig of mint for a refreshing presentation.
Serve the lemonade chilled for a refreshing summer drink.

Conclusion:

Black tea lemonade is a refreshing and flavorful drink that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its combination of black tea, lemon juice, and sweetener, black tea lemonade is a delicious and healthy way to quench your thirst.
