How To Make Arnold Palmer Tea? - Beverage Buff

sugar

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: agave syrup

Honey adds sweetness with a different flavor profile.

Boil 3 cups of water.

Add 3 tea bags to the boiling water.

Let the tea steep for about 5 minutes.

Remove the tea bags and let the tea cool down.

Refrigerate the tea for several hours or overnight.

In a saucepan, combine 2 cups of water and 1/2 cup of sugar.

Bring the mixture to a low boil, stirring until the sugar dissolves.

Once the sugar is fully dissolved, remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool to room temperature.

Stir in 1/2 cup of lemon juice into the cooled sugar water.

Fill a pitcher or individual glasses with ice.

Pour equal parts of the cooled tea and lemonade over the ice.

Adjust the ratio of tea to lemonade to taste, typically a 1:1 mix.

Garnish with thin lemon slices and fresh mint leaves.

For a spiked version, add 2 oz of bourbon whiskey or sweet tea vodka.
