Beat the summer heat with this incredibly refreshing and invigorating Yuzu Tea Lemonade! This delightful beverage is a perfect fusion of the fragrant sweetness of yuzu tea and the zesty tang of fresh lemon. Let’s craft this delightful drink together and make your summer days even cooler!
Yuzu Tea Lemonade Ingredients- 4 Tbsp Yuzu Tea (sweetened)
- 1 Lemon
- 300ml Water
- Plenty of Ice
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Start by filling your serving glass generously with ice. This is the foundation for a truly refreshing drink that stays cold for longer.
Step 2
Next, add the yuzu tea. The amount can be adjusted to your sweetness preference. I’ve used 4 tablespoons for a lovely balance of sweet and tart, but feel free to use more or less to suit your taste.
Step 3
Spoon the sweetened yuzu tea over the ice-filled glass. The vibrant color is already a promising sign of the deliciousness to come!
Step 4
Prepare your fresh lemon. You’ll need it for juicing and for garnish. (Set aside a few thin slices of lemon for decoration later.)
Step 5
Squeeze the juice from the fresh lemon generously into the glass. This is where the bright, zesty flavor comes from. Using a citrus juicer can make this step easier.
Step 6
Don’t hold back – use the entire lemon! Juicing a whole lemon ensures that its vibrant tang perfectly complements the sweetness of the yuzu tea, creating an irresistible flavor profile.
Step 7
Now, pour in the cool water until the glass is full. This will help dilute the concentrated yuzu tea and lemon juice, creating a perfectly balanced beverage. (Adjust the water quantity based on your glass size.)
Step 8
Finally, garnish your Yuzu Tea Lemonade with the reserved lemon slices. It adds a beautiful touch and enhances the citrus aroma. Your refreshing masterpiece is almost complete!
Step 9
Behold! Your beautifully crafted, incredibly refreshing Yuzu Tea Lemonade is ready to be admired. Just looking at it will make you feel cooler.
Step 10
Give everything a good stir to ensure the yuzu tea is fully dissolved and all the flavors are well combined. Now, take a big, refreshing gulp! This delicious drink is perfect for quenching your thirst and enjoying a taste of summer.
