Zesty Half And Half

5 ingredients
6 steps

Ingredients

  • 6 Earl Grey tea bags
  • 10 cups cold water
  • juice of 5 lemons(1 cup)
  • simple syrup or sugar
  • zest of 3 lemons

Directions

  1. 1
    In a large pitcher put 6 teabags and 6 cups of cold water and leave until it makes strong tea (usually about an hour)
  2. 2
    Juice the lemons(you should have a cup of juice) and add about 3 cups of cold water. Zest at least 3 of the lemons.
  3. 3
    Mix the tea and the lemonade together and add sugar or simple syrup to taste. ( I usually do not add much sugar and leave that to each drinker)
  4. 4
    Rinse glasses and place in the freezer for about an hour prior to making the half and half so that they will achieve a nice frosty appearance when you fill them.
  5. 5
    Remove the glasses from the freezer and dip the rim in lemon zest. Add ice and add the half and half. Add more sugar if you want a sweeter version.
  6. 6
    If you want a sweeter drink, you can mix sugar with the zest and use that mixture to rim the glass.
