February 3, 2017 at 7:44 pmThat’s not quite how we make our Passion Tea Lemonade. It’s a 1:1 ratio of double strength passion tea and lemonade, then classic syrup (basically sugar water), and of course, ice. There is no vanilla, but I’m now tempted to try switching out some pumps of class for pumps of vanilla.

August 17, 2016 at 4:09 pmI am making it now, but why do you add lemonade at the very end when it’s already been added to the final mix? Excited to try this. Thanks.

March 12, 2016 at 10:35 pmIt was pretty good! I think next time I will watch how long I let my tea steep, it was just a bit strong for me, but thats what multi-tasking gets ya! I also will probably add a touch more sugar, mine wasn’t as sweet as I would like for it to be! Other than than it was very good :)

March 30, 2015 at 2:52 pmActually Tazo makes an “iced: versioin of the Passion tea that you can buy in most Walmart and some other stores. I have been using it for 3-4 years now…

I make mine double strength from what they suggest but then as the ice melts the tea still is very flavorful that way.

September 12, 2017 at 9:35 pmWhat ratio of the concentrate to water do you use? Thank you
David says
June 27, 2018 at 9:00 pmThe recipe on the package says 1 pouch to 32oz of water + 32oz lemonade (or 32oz water for just the tea)
I like mine a little sweeter so I may add some sugar.

March 26, 2015 at 5:22 pmI’ve seen Tazo tea at Meijer and Target. You also can buy the boxes of tea at Starbucks, but you might not want to tell the barista you won’t be seeming them for a long time. :)
