Want an easy and refreshingly different sweet iced tea for the spring/summer? This is my “signature” tea I make and take everywhere iced tea is needed. My husband actually brought this recipe home to me from a business weekend at a country inn, and it’s addictive!
Lemonade Almond Tea
Makes 1 Gallon
To 2 quarts brewed and cooled iced tea,
add
2 cup sugar
1 12 oz can lemonade concentrate thawed
4 tsp almond extract
6 cups water
Mix and serve chilled.
We love this. I’ve tried it with sugar free lemonade and Splenda, but it’s just not as good. 🙂 Hope you enjoy, and have a great Tuesday…

Oh.Wow! This sounds SO good. I love iced tea and almond extract, but have never thought to put the two together. I think my hubby will love this, too.

Mmm! That sounds amazing – I am going to try it out! I’d love to have a “signature ice tea” recipe 🙂
Right now my summer drink of choice is lemonade – I have posted my favorite lemonade recipe on my recipe blog.
It would be nice to have an alternative drink to make sometimes tho!

Hi Jennifer,
Found your blog today through a friend…how nice it has been to read through! And then to discover you’re from Nashville – my best friend lives there – and I knew I’d be checking back often. Also explains why the tea made with splenda just couldn’t cut it?!? 🙂

I am so going to have to try this! It’s lemon season here in S. Africa so I make my own lemonade and often make lemonade iced tea, too! I’m really excited to try this!

when I first moved to the south, I had NO idea how huge iced tea was. I had my first dinner party and literally had 5 beverage choices, and the first person I asked, “what would you like?” They said, “What, no iced tea?” He quickly informed me that I have to learn to make it….I still haven’t mastered it but this may be just the recipe to remedy that. 🙂

I’ll have to give this a try..it sounds good.
I just learned this past week to add to a cup of coffee..a couple drops of Vanilla, a dash of cinnamon and a dolop of whipped creme or just half and half…Oh Honey…it is so delicious. Give it a try..
Thanks for the recipe…

Jennifer,
Thanks for sharing this recipe because I can’t wait to try this! It sounds like the iced tea that I have had at Lily Belle’s in downtown Franklin… one of my favorite places to go with my sister. If you haven’t been there you definitely need to visit. Have a great day!
