Place 1 gallon of water in a clear jar, add 5 red rose tea bags, Place in sun and allow to steep for 3-4 hours. Squeeze out tea bags and discard them. Bring 1 cup water and 1/2 cup sugar together to a boil in a small saucepan until sugar is dissolved. Take off heat and stir in the lemonade mix. Cool.
