Notes
Optional Variations
While I like following the Starbucks medicine ball tea recipe pretty closely to how the coffee giant makes it, there are a few ways you can jazz up this tisane to your preferences:
- Iced Medicine Ball - If you prefer your beverages on ice, I’ve got you covered. Steep the tea bags in about ¼ cup of boiling water for 3-5 minutes. Add the honey and stir to combine, then add cold water and cold or frozen lemonade, stirring once more. Serve over ice and enjoy!
- Add extra mint flavor by swapping honey mint simple syrup for the honey.
