Soooo, I am a long time reader first time commenter but this post caught my eye! Because I worked at starbucks. I just wanted to tell you you are very close with your recipe, and if you want to add the sweetener to it like starbucks does you can buy a huge bottle of it for 6 bucks! We don’t sell them in the lobby, you just gotta ask and we will pull one from the back.

I think the best instruction is to sit on my porch, pretend it is hot and children are playing in the yard. May I add fireflies??

Yum! My friend had a recipe for the passion tea lemonade on her facebook the other day using the Tazo passion tea too. Why have I never heard or these? Oh yeah, because I’m too distracted by the white mochas and caramel macchiatos…

I do something similar to that. I mix one of the generic Crystal Light lemonade packs with one of the GCL Iced Tea packs. I get that because they’re sugar free. I’m definitely going to make your version and do a taste test. We love teamonade at our house!

This is one of my favorite drinks at Starbucks but I order with the Passion Tea. Of course you can buy Tazo Passion Tea at the grocery store so I’m trying your recipe! Makes it decaf this way too.

I second the comment above about passion tea… It’s SO good, especially in the summer. And like she said you can buy the tea bags at any starbucks store.

As a Starbucks barista, can I let you in on a little secret??? We just began selling our full leaf tea (passion, zen, and black) that we use in our tea lemonades as a retail item in stores everywhere. It comes in a tin of 15 tea bags ($6.95) and I can assure you that you will not be disappointed — they are all amazing!
