How to Make Spiced Tea Lemonade
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar (or Splenda to taste), 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger, 1 teaspoon allspice berries, 1/2 teaspoon whole cloves, and 1 cup water.
- Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Bring the mixture to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the spices to infuse.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and add 4 black tea bags (or equivalent).
- Steep the tea for 5 minutes, then remove the tea bags.
- Strain the spiced syrup through a fine-mesh sieve into a pitcher.
- Add 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice, 2 medium oranges (quartered and gently crushed with a spoon to release juice), and 3 cups of cold water to the pitcher.
- Stir gently to combine.
- Serve over ice. Garnish with orange slices and a sprig of fresh mint (optional).
