Ingredients You’ll Need
Here’s what you’re gonna need to whip up this beauty:
- 4 cups of water
- 4 black tea bags (you can use your fave brand)
- 1 cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1/2 to 3/4 cup of sugar (adjust based on your sweetness preference)
- Ice cubes
- Lemon slices for garnish (optional)
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Time to Get to Mixing!
Now that you’ve got your ingredients ready, let’s make this drink happen:
- First off, bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a pot. Once it’s boiling, take it off the heat.
- Add your black tea bags to the pot and let them steep for about 5-7 minutes. If you like your tea a bit stronger, you can let it steep a little longer.
- While that’s brewing, in a pitcher, combine the freshly squeezed lemon juice and sugar. Stir it up real good until the sugar dissolves.
- Once the tea is done steeping, remove the tea bags and pour the brewed tea into the pitcher with the lemon and sugar mix. Stir well to combine.
- Now, taste that thing! If you want it sweeter, add more sugar until it’s just how you like it.
- Chill the pitcher in the fridge until it’s nice and cold or serve immediately with ice cubes for that instant refreshment.
- If you’re feeling fancy, garnish with lemon slices and fresh mint leaves. It’s all in the details, baby!
And there you have it – a perfect Copycat Starbucks Iced Black Tea Lemonade right in your own kitchen. Grab your friends, serve it up, and enjoy those summer vibes. Cheers!
