I love mint tea and this was even better. The lemonade flavor was a little overpowering for us so next time will use a bit less. This would be nice hot for the holidays too. Thank you Chef Mommie!

Oh my, this was really tasty and refreshing. It turned out I didn't have a big enough pitcher on hand for the recipe, so I made and chilled it in a bowl, then was just ladeling it out until I got it down to where it would fit the pitcher. I'm wishing that I discovered this while our recent heat wave was still going on because it would have kept me cool and quenched.
