Great summer drink recipe. I love TEANZO 1856's Moroccan Mint Green Tea. This would be a great addition to this recipe!

Followed the recipe w/ one change - used 5 packets Truvia instead of sugar. Was very good. Neither the lemon nor the mint overpowered it. My daughters loved it so it will be a staple in our fridge.
