Passion Tea Recipe

I'm not sure what year I started making the homemade copycat Starbucks iced tea. However, once I tried the recipe I was hooked! Not to mention how pretty the color is. I'm all for pretty drinks all year long. Last year when I went on my weight loss journey. I stopped using refined sugar. This was huge for me. I was one of those people who looked at the original copycat recipe and would add twice as much sugar when making beverages at home. I know, I've come along way. Now that it's summertime. I want to incorporate back some of my favorite summer drinks. One being the iced passion tea. It's so refreshing to enjoy on a nice summer day. Especially, with the heatwave that we've been having. I love that this recipe is low calorie and doesn't require a lot of ingredients. I opted to use limes instead of lemons because that's what I had no hand. However, please feel free to use lemons as well. I typically do not make a large batch if I'm just making this for myself because it will only last a couple of days in the refrigerator.

  2. If I ever go to Starbucks, which is VERY rare - I get this tea (minus sweetness)... In fact, when they give it to me and I take a sip I always have to ask to make sure it's NOT sweetened ! haha!
