mango green tea lemonade
Tea is one of my favorite things to drink. I know I should be drinking more water, but you make tea with water, right? Yeah, just let me roll with that. I love tea because I can have it iced in the summer and hot in the winter. Therefore, I can enjoy it all.year.long, YAY!
I’m a sweet tea kind girl, with lemon too, please.
Truth be told, I use to drive thru McDonald’s at least once a day to indulge in their $1 large sweet teas. That was until I realized the amount of sugar in one of those babies. That was the end of my McDonald’s runs. I do on occasion let myself enjoy one of their sweet teas, for their convenience, and honestly just how darn good they are. Damn you McDonald’s.
I think my love of tea started when I worked at Starbucks. As a new barista it was your job to try everything so that you could accurately describe the menu items to patrons.
When I first had the Black Tea Lemonade I’m pretty sure my heart skipped a beat. It was so delicious and refreshing. Lemonade in tea, it was such a new thing for me.
Genius idea, Arnold Palmer, genius. No, I have no idea if he is the one who first started the Tea + Lemonade craze. My guess is probably not but his tea is one of my favs. I’ll drink an Arnold Palmer Zero any day of the week and with no guilt #winning Side note, my dad, being the avid golfer he is, has met Arnold Palmer few times, cool huh?
