blast from the past: sun tea!

Summertime is not complete without making sun tea. It is a great way to enjoy a deeper and richer flavor from your tea. If you have never made it, the recipe is easy. I use a large mason jar, fill it with water and tea, then set it outside and let the sun do its magic.

I also decided this summer to use my mint that I originally planted to use in my mint juleps for the Kentucky Derby. It was the perfect blend of mint and tea with the added benefit of aiding our digestive systems!

I am ready to play with my recipe and may try to use lemons in my next batch. It should be the perfect Arnold Palmer without the added sugar. I can taste it already!
