Ingredients
  

For the Tea Base
  • 4 cups Water The main liquid base required to brew your tea perfectly.
  • 2 bags Tazo Passion Tea Bags Provides that essential fruity flavor; regular black tea can be used as a substitute.
  • 1 cup Hibiscus Leaves Optional; adds a floral hint and a beautiful color.
For the Lemonade
  • 2 cups Lemonade The sweet and tangy star of the drink; use store-bought or homemade.
For Serving
  • as needed Ice A must for serving; consider using frozen fruit to enhance flavor.

Equipment

  • Medium saucepan
  • large pitcher

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Start by boiling 4 cups of water in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat until it reaches a rolling boil. Remove the pan from heat and add the Tazo Passion Tea bags along with optional hibiscus leaves. Allow the mixture to steep for about 15 minutes; you'll see the water take on a vibrant color. Once steeped, discard the tea bags and let the tea cool to room temperature.
  2. After the tea has cooled, transfer it to a large pitcher and place it in the refrigerator. Allow the tea to chill for at least 1 hour to intensify the flavors.
  3. While the tea is chilling, prepare your lemonade. If using store-bought lemonade, give it a good stir to mix any settled ingredients. For homemade lemonade, squeeze fresh lemons to yield approximately 2 cups of juice, mixing it with 2 cups of water and adjusting sweetness to taste.
  4. Once the tea is chilled, it's time to mix! In a tall glass filled with ice, pour equal parts of the prepared passion tea and lemonade. Stir gently, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
  5. Finish your Starbucks Passion Tea Lemonade by garnishing with lemon slices or sprigs of fresh mint for an enticing presentation.
