(Tea Times Blog) – It is still hotter than normal in my area of Oregon, so I am continuing my search for iced drinks.
After my success with the refrigerator tea using the white pomegranate and mint tea, I decided to play some more with the mint tea. I had lemonade in the refrigerator that had been purchased late last week to make marionberry lemonade for my daughter. So, on Friday I decided to try a version of an Arnold Palmer: a drink made with half-lemonade and half-iced tea named after the famous golfer.
I brewed a cup of the Trader Joe’s Organic Mint Melange Tea with half the water than normal. I poured the hot tea over an equivalent amount of ice, letting the ice melt. I filled a glass with ice, then added the tea with an equal amount of lemonade. (I used a premade, but you could make homemade.)
The minty flavor worked really well with the lemonade, creating a fun twist on an already fun drink.
