Ingredients
- 12 ounces lemonade
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 1 tea bag peppermint tea
- 1 tea bag peach tea
- Fresh lemon slices (for garnish, optional)
- Simmer the lemonade: Pour 12 ounces of lemonade into a small saucepan and bring it to a gentle simmer over medium heat for about 4 minutes, allowing it to warm thoroughly.
- Add honey to mug: Place 2 teaspoons of honey into your serving mug to sweeten the drink naturally.
- Mix honey and lemonade: Pour the hot lemonade from the saucepan into the mug over the honey and stir well until the honey has fully dissolved.
- Steep the teas: Add 1 peppermint tea bag and 1 peach tea bag to the mug. Let the tea steep according to the tea bag instructions or until it reaches your preferred strength—around 4 minutes works well.
- Garnish and serve: Optionally, add fresh lemon slices to the mug for extra citrus aroma and flavor before serving.
Notes
- Adjust steeping time for tea bags depending on how strong you want the tea flavor.
- You can substitute honey with another sweetener if preferred.
- Use fresh lemonade for best flavor; store-bought lemonade works fine too.
- Serve immediately while warm for maximum soothing effect.
