- Leave the teabag to infuse for up to 15 minutes.
- Remove the teabags and let come to room temperature. Pour green tea, plus 4 more cups of water to a pitcher with fresh lemon juice and agave nectar, and stir.

- Green tea lemonade can be made up to a week in advance and kept in the refrigerator.
- If possible, use cristalino tequila. If not, tequila blanco is a good substitute.
