Notes
Make a Large Batch in a Pitcher
Use a one-to-one ratio of tea to lemonade. Add one teaspoon of honey for every serving of Medicine Ball Tea.
For example: I have a pitcher that serves 10 cups. I used 5 cups of hot water with 5 peach tea bags and 5 citrus mint tea bags, then added 5 cups of hot lemonade and 5 teaspoons of honey. Cover the pitcher with a lid and store in the refrigerator. Before serving, give it a stir and pour a cup and reheat in the microwave for 30 seconds to one minute. You can also reheat in a saucepan over low-medium heat until warm.
