The Starbucks Medicine Ball is the perfect hot tea drink for a sore throat, cold, or even as a pick me up!
Background: The Starbucks Medicine Ball is a drink that we’ve been making for years. It’s the perfect hot tea for a sore throat, cold, or even as a pick me up. When we discovered how easy it is to make at home, we started keeping the ingredients on hand all the time. Any time we have a family member that isn’t feeling too well, we whip up a Medicine Ball right away. If you’re out and about, stop by your local Starbucks and order a Medicine Ball. It’s not on their menu, but they’ll know!

- 3/4 cup lemonade, we use Simply Lemonade
