Refreshing Lemonade Iced Tea

You can use whatever kind of tea you prefer, but I like to use an organic green tea. I also use organic raw honey, but regular honey or even sugar or Splenda would work fine.

Pour 2 cups boiling water over 4 tea bags. Let brew for 5 to 10 minutes. Press tea bags with the back of a spoon, then discard. Stir in 1/4 cup honey, 1 cup cold water and 3 cups lemonade. Pour over ice and garnish with a mint sprig.

Healthy and refreshing! Lemonade Iced Tea is perfect for a summer afternoon. I love this glass pitcher, it’s the perfect size to keep iced tea on hand.
