Anyone knows how to make Starbuck's Iced Green Tea Lemonade?

Question

I tried using different teas and different syrups, but I've never ever been even close to the original. I was hoping somebody would point me out to a good Starbuck's Iced Green Tea Lemonade without having to buy Starbucks syrup.

Answer 1

It is hard to get copycat from Starbucks, but here are some suggestions:

Prepare a lemonade concentrate using only ½ of the amount of water called for in the recipe or directions.

Brew fresh green tea leaves of GOOD Green Tea equal to the amount of water you need to complete the lemonade and allow it to cool to room temperature. For example, if preparing one gallon of lemonade, make ½ gallon of lemonade concentrate and ½ gallon of green tea.

Combine cool brewed tea with the lemonade and serve over ice.

Iced Green Tea Lemonade

1 green tea bag

2 packets of sugar, or more to taste

3 packets of True Lemon crystallized lemon substitute

hot water

ice

Do this

Using either a fancy beverage machine, hot water tap, kettle, or microwave, heat up a mug full of water to near-boiling. Steep green tea for 3-5 minutes or until you’re happy with the brewing strength. I like to make mine a little bit stronger than I would drink hot, just because the ice tends to dilute the tea as it melts. Mix lemon crystals and sugar into the hot tea (it dissolves better!) and pour into a glass filled with ice. Sip your tea and count down the minutes until you’re out of the office!
