Ingredients
Method
- Steep the 4 tea bags in 2 cups boiling water for 6 minutes, then remove without squeezing.
- Stir in the 3/4 cup simple syrup while the tea is still warm until fully dissolved, about 30 seconds.
- Add the 1 cup fresh lemon juice and the 2 cups cold water, then stir for 20 seconds to combine.
- Fill 4 glasses with the 2 cups of ice, pour the tea lemonade over, garnish each glass with a lemon round, and serve immediately.
Notes
This drink is best made and served the same day, but the concentrate keeps for up to 3 days in the fridge without the ice. If you're making it ahead for a party, hold off on adding the cold water until right before serving so you can pour it over fresh ice without dilution. Lemon juice strength varies, so taste before serving and adjust.
