Cocktail of the Week: Strawberry Lemonade Vodka Iced Tea

I discovered this one over the long Labor Day weekend. It was a perfect sipper while sitting around and not laboring at all.

Strawberry Lemonade Vodka Iced Tea
Adapted from Everyday Food.
Makes 4 cocktails.

In a medium jar, combine 1 Earl Grey teabag, 1 cup sliced strawberries and 1 cup vodka. Let steep for one hour.

Meanwhile in a microwavable measuring cup, stir together 1/4 cup sugar and 1 cup fresh lemon juice. Microwave for about 45 seconds until sugar is dissolved. Let cool completely.

After tea mixture has steeped and lemonade mix has cooled, combine in a pitcher and stir to combine.

Pour into 4 ice-filled highball glasses and top each with club soda.
