This Copycat Starbucks Passion Tea Lemonade Recipe is going to save you some big bucks this spring and summer. Or maybe even today ha ha! I have been craving spring and summer drinks this past few weeks. My CopyCat Sonic Cherry Limeade that I shared with you has really helped me cure these winter blues. I will admit I drink Iced Tea year round as it is my favorite cold drink. When spring and summer arrive I will jump on the flavored Iced Teas.
If you have yet to try Starbucks Passion Tea Lemonade… you are missing out on a REALLY Tasty Iced Tea. Great year round but WONDERFUL in the spring and summer. Starbucks Passion Tea Lemonade is so gosh darn good that I rushed to Starbucks this weekend and HAD to have one. Yesterday morning I had to run to Target and was so tempted to drop in to Starbucks to buy myself another Passion Tea Lemonade. I then thought heck no! I will go home and make myself a CopyCat Starbucks Passion Tea Lemonade and save the $$’s.

I make this with Sunkist Lemonade and White Grape Juice; as it cools I add various slices of frozen and fresh fruits; especially use frozen passion fruit cubes! It adds a beautiful pink color.
I take this to work for fellow nursing colleagues; they all love it
I make a copycat as well, but I make cold brew Tazo Passionfruit Tea with lemonade in a 32 oz jar. I put 16 oz of lemonade with 4 tea bags add 16 oz of water and top of the rest of the jar with fresh lemon juice for extra tartness while I’m making dinner. Put it in the fridge overnight and it’s ready by lunchtime the next day. I don’t need to add any extra sugar and it comes out so delicious.
When I need a quick fix I do the recipe with hot tea and put in a 16 oz glass with a full glass of ice and do the recipe as above. The tea & lemonade come out to about 16 oz with added water, lemonade and fresh lemon juice. So delicious on a day I’m craving lemonade. I pick up the Tazo tea at least 3x a month to make sure I don’t run out!
I was making this copy cat drink using Great Vakue lemonade mix which was sweetened with Stevia (I don’t do refined sugar and try to avoid artificial sweeteners). Then WM stopped selling the Stevia sweetened lemonade. So my version of this drink is:
Pour the passion tea into a glass, add fresh squeezed lemon juice (to taste) and add Sweet Leaf Vanilla Cream stevia drops (to taste).
Thanks for this post and all the comments!
I like to add apple juice instead of lemonade to my iced passion tea
Made these for my two daughters, they loved them. Thank you
