Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
On a lightly floured surface, roll piecrust into a 12 inch circle. Press it into the bottom and up the sides of a 9 inch pie plate. Fold edges under, and crimp as desired. Refrigerate for 15 minutes. Top with a piece of parchment paper, letting ends extend over edges of plate. Add pie weights.
Bake 15 minutes. Carefully remove paper and weights. Let cool 30 minutes on a wire rack.
In a large bowl, stir together sugar, flour, cornmeal and salt; add eggs and egg yolks; beat at medium speed with an electric mixer until combined. Add tea, butter, lemon zest and lemon juice; beat until combined. Pour into prepared crust.
Bake until set, about 35 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
Refrigerate until chilled.
Serve with whipped cream and garnish with lemon zest, if desired.
