Slow Cooker Sweet Lemon Tea

Crock-Pot Sweet Lemon Tea is a delightful tea to have on hand for parties, summer days or when the family is under the weather.

It is incredibly easy to make and because you make it in the crock-pot it’s easier to have enough on hand for large groups, or to use throughout the day.

You can also cool it and add some ice for a nice ice tea.

I even purchased the reusable ice cubes so my tea wouldn’t be weakened by the ice.  My kids had so much fun with it, and of course loved using the cute ice cubes. 

Keeping my children filled with enough snacks and drinks during the summer can break the bank, but this tea is very affordable and so much better then the artificial junk they typically drink. 

I just start it up early in the morning, and by the time they are up and about it’s ready. 

It’s been warm obviously, so we have been cooling it in the fridge and adding ice, but this works great during the school year too, when it’s cooler so we keep it warm. 

It makes the house smell marvelous, which can be great for parties if you want a healthy fresh smell for your house.  

I did another tea recipe a few weeks back, Crock-Pot Mint Tea, and that one tastes and smells great as well.  

What is your favorite tea and how do you make it?
