Fallen Souffle

We have been blessed with beautiful weather this week in NC, it is so nice to be able to sit outside and relax and not sweat to death! The humidity will be here before we know it! So I wanted to make a refreshing drink and I was dreaming of the Ina drink with tea and apple juice but we didn’t have any apple juice and somehow Juicy Juice just wasn’t doing it for me. So I went along those lines and used Crystal Light as the sweetener, which I thought was a pretty good idea. It was really refreshing, low in calories and easy to make. Evan said it needed a cool name, I couldn’t think of one so…

Berry Lemon Cooler

-8 Berry Zinger Tea bags (you can use other “zingers’ but I love this one right now)
-1 container of powdered Crystal Light lemonade (not the one that makes a ton of lemonade, I’m talking about the individual ones that make like 2 quarts)
- 8 cups water

Boil about 2 cups of water and pour over tea bags in a measuring cup, let steep 5 minutes or so. Meanwhile in a pitcher combine the powdered lemonade and 6 cups of water. Remove the tea bags and let tea cool, I usually add ice cubes to speed up the process. When cooled, add the tea to the lemonade, stir and enjoy over ice!
