  • About

If you want to enjoy a Brother Marcus lemonade at home, first you have to make the special tea syrup that gives it its distinctive flavour. It might seem like a faff but it keeps for three days in the fridge and then you can make this beautifully refreshing drink in a flash.

Ingredients

For the Tea Syrup:

  • 220 g caster sugar
  • 3 tsp mountain tea
  • 10

Method

Start off with your tea syrup to allow time for it to cool. Put the sugar in a small pan with 220ml water and put over a medium heat. Stir until the sugar has dissolved, then add the mountain tea, crushed cloves, dried apple, cinnamon stick and dried mint and bring to the boil. Immediately turn off the heat and leave for 15 minutes to infuse. Strain and bottle, then pop it in the fridge.
