Instructions

  1. To prepare tea mix, combine all ingredients and shake or stir to mix well. Store covered.
  2. To prepare one serving place 1 Tablespoon mix (see note) in a mug and top with 8-12 ounces of boiling water. Let sit for a couple minutes to steep and cool slightly, then enjoy.

Notes

  • These might include Crystal Light or True Citrus Lemon (which is sweetened with stevia and a little sugar) or enough of sugared lemonade mix to make 1 quart.  For the most natural option, you can use 2-3 Tablespoons lemon powder mixed with about 1/4 cup sweetener (or to taste).
  • If you use a low volume sugar substitute like stevia, you may use slightly less than 1 Tablespoon to make a mug of tea. If you use full sugar lemonade mix, you may use slightly more than 1 Tablespoon to make a mug. But in the end, feel free to mix per your own taste!
