Method

Prepare Lemonade

  1. 1

    Juice the Lemons

    Cut the fresh lemons in half and juice them until you have about 1 cup of lemon juice. Strain the juice to remove seeds and pulp.

  2. 2

    Make Lemonade

    In a pitcher, combine the freshly squeezed lemon juice, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and 4 cups of water. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary.

Prepare Tea

  1. 3

    Brew the Tea

    Boil 2 cups of water and pour it over the black tea bags in a heatproof container. Let the tea steep for about 5-7 minutes, depending on how strong you like it.

  2. 4

    Add Fresh Mint

    After removing the tea bags, add the fresh mint leaves to the hot tea. Allow it to steep for an additional 5 minutes to infuse the mint flavor.

Combine & Serve

  1. 5

    Mix Lemonade and Tea

    Once the tea has cooled slightly, combine the mint-infused tea with the lemonade mixture in a large pitcher. Stir well.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Pour the Harneys Lemonade Tea over ice and garnish with lemon slices and mint sprigs if desired. Enjoy!
