EASY DRINK RECIPESRefreshing Margarita and Daiquiri Recipes Homemade Baileys Irish Cream, Peach Schnapps, Kahlua and Blueberry Liqueur In search of easy drink recipes? I've got you covered. I lived in Chattanooga for several years, and I have to say that I crave my old fashioned lemonade recipe and southern iced tea. I also loved pecan pie and pralines sweet enough to make the dentist cringe. It amazed me when I went to the restaurant that everyone ordered "Coke," and the waitress brought the correct beverages... This homemade lemonade recipe sure hits the spot. Sit back and enjoy the lazy days of summer (or spring, fall or even winter) with my beverage recipes.
This is one of my favorite drink recipes. Sprinkle the pinch of soda in the bottom of a large glass heat-proof pitcher; as this cuts down the bitter aftertaste. Pour in the boiling water and add the tea bags. Allow to seep for 15 minutes. Remove the tea bags and stir in the white sugar until dissolved. Pour in the cool water and put in refrigerator until cold. Add slices of lemon when serving.
