Green Tea Lemonade (Starbucks Copycat) Printer-Friendly Recipe
From: Momtastic
Makes about 1 ½ cups Green Tea Lemonade before ice
Ingredients
3 tablespoons granulated sugar, plus more to taste
1 green tea bag
½ cup boiling water
¼ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (from about 2 lemons)
¾ cup cold water
Ice cubes
Directions
Boil 1/2 cup of water and add to a glass with 3 tablespoons of sugar and a green tea bag. Steep the tea for about 3 minutes. Remove the bag and stir to help dissolve the sugar. Add in the lemon juice and 3/4 cup cold water. Stir well. Do a taste test-if you want a less tart tea, add a little more sugar. Pour the tea over ice. Enjoy!

Boil that water!

Sugar & green tea.

Steep the tea in the 1/2 cup boiled water and sugar. Sugar water is the best.

After steeping & stirring, add in the cold water.

Squeeze the lemon juice in. Stir and add ice. Enjoy!
Yes! Yes! YES! Tea and lemonade. We need more of this in the world.
I couldn’t agree more 🙂
