Substitutions
Lemonade (Starbucks Version): If you are using your favorite pulp free lemonade, warm it in the microwave (in a microwave-safe mug) or use steamed lemonade from an espresso machine.
Variations
Ice: This tea drink is also great iced! Just steep the tea bags in 8 oz of water instead of 12oz, add in the honey and lemon, stir well and pour over ice. Add more ice as it melts.
Hot Toddy: This combination makes a wonderful hot toddy as well. Add 1.5 oz of your favorite bourbon to take this tea from good to fantastic.
