# What You'll Need:

→ Tea Base

01 - 4 cups water
02 - 4 white tea bags

→ Guava Lemonade Base

03 - 1 cup guava juice (100% pure, unsweetened preferred)

07 - Ice cubes
08 - Lemon slices

# Directions:

01 - Bring 4 cups of water to a boil, then remove from heat and let cool for 1 minute to prevent scalding the delicate tea leaves.

03 - In a large pitcher, combine guava juice, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup, and 1/2 cup cold water. Stir until fully incorporated.
04 - Pour the cooled white tea into the pitcher with the guava lemonade mixture. Stir thoroughly to blend flavors.
05 - Taste the beverage and add additional simple syrup if more sweetness is desired, stirring well after each addition.
06 - Refrigerate the mixture for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and reach optimal serving temperature.
07 - Fill glasses with ice cubes, pour the chilled guava white tea lemonade over, and garnish with fresh lemon slices and mint sprigs.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The white tea adds this subtle floral backbone that keeps the drink from being too sweet
  • It comes together in literally ten minutes but tastes like something from a fancy café
02 -
  • I learned the hard way that hot white tea turns bitter fast, so set a timer and dont walk away
  • The drink separates slightly as it sits, so give it a quick stir before pouring each glass
03 -
  • If your simple syrup crystallizes in the fridge, gently warm it and itll smooth right out
  • Add a splash of coconut water for subtle creaminess that pairs beautifully with guava
