Dive into summer with our Blackberry Mojito Tea Lemonade, a Starbucks-inspired creation that combines the best of tea, lemonade, and mojito flavors. This recipe originated from the desire to create a non-alcoholic version of the popular mojito cocktail, infused with the refreshing qualities of iced tea and tangy lemonade.
Our version uses a blend of black tea and green tea for a balanced base, complemented by the bright flavors of fresh lemon juice and muddled mint leaves. The addition of blackberry syrup adds a fruity sweetness and beautiful color, while a splash of sparkling water gives it that signature mojito effervescence. This drink is perfect for hot summer days, backyard barbecues, or anytime you need a refreshing pick-me-up.
