Arnold Palmer Drink: a Silky Cold Brew Classic

Place 4 black tea bags into your large glass pitcher.

Pour 4 cups of cold filtered water over the bags. Note: Using cold water from the start is what prevents the bitterness.

Cover the pitcher and place it in the refrigerator for 8 hours or overnight.

Remove the tea bags after the 8 hour mark, being careful not to squeeze them, which can release extra tannins.

In a separate bowl or jar, combine 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice, 1.5 cups filtered water, 1 tsp lemon zest, and 3 tbsp agave nectar.

Whisk the lemonade mixture vigorously until the agave is completely dissolved and the zest is distributed.

Fill highball glasses to the brim with clear ice cubes.

Pour the cold brewed tea into each glass until it is roughly 3/4 full.

Top off the remaining 1/4 of the glass with your prepared lemonade mixture.

Stir gently with a long spoon until the colors swirl together and the drink is chilled.

Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and a lemon wheel. If you find yourself wanting to experiment with the base, you can always try different sweeteners. However, sticking to the agave or a liquid syrup is key to maintaining that velvety texture.
