Earl Grey Lemonade
Earl Grey lemonade is a perfectly refreshing and easy drink to keep you cool all summer long. Earl grey tea with its bergamot orange infused flavor is mixed with fresh lemonade for a tart, tangy, delicious drink.
Similar to an Arnold Palmer Ice Tea
Are you familiar with an Arnold Palmer iced tea (it’s regular black tea and lemonade)? This is my British twist on an American classic drink.
Earl Grey tea has been around since the 1830’s and it’s the first drink I crave when I’m back in England. Earl Grey has floral and orange flavors in the tea so it seems like the perfect flavor pairing with tart lemonade.
Spiked Lemonade
This lemonade is perfect for long summer days, but it can also be taken into the evening by spiking it with a little vodka to give you the option to spike, if you like.
I love making drinks using tea. I’ve previously made an Earl Grey ginger spritzer which is so refreshing with a fizzy finish from ginger beer. This drink is also non-alcoholic.
In the warm weather, I always have a pitcher of iced tea in the fridge. This summer, I’ll be keeping a pitcher of this Earl Grey lemonade, my new favorite.

This makes me so happy. I can’t wait for the warm weather to start making this too. π
I made a big batch for a baby shower last weekend and it was a hit. Especially in the 80 degree weather.
Hi. I want to make a large batch for a wedding. Can you tell me how much of each ingredient you used for a big batch? I have no clue!
It depends on how many people you are serving. My recipe serves 4 people, so you can double, quadruple and keep going based on how many people you need to make this for. I hope this helps.
I love this twist on lemonade! I’m a big fan of Arnold Palmers so I’ll definitely need to try this. Pinned for later π
