Sun Tea

So, one of the (only) things I love about summer is I get to make sun tea again! Cause, let's faced it, the rest of summer is miserable. I have to adorn my white pasty body with a swimsuit, get eaten a live by mosquitoes, burned by the sun, sweat like a pig, die in a roasting car before it's cooled down (what DID people do before air conditioning?!), stick and smell from lovely sunblock and bug spray, and water the grass and garden for what seems like forever. But I digress....

I love sun tea!!! The combinations is what I love--mixing a few bags of this with a few bags of that, maybe a few fresh herbs or honey... herbal? Caffeinated?? Oohh.. the options are unlimited! I love to watch it brew in the sun, to look out the back window and see it sitting on the hot deck on the table steeping away. The suns goodness warming my brew. Then to bring it back inside to bail out the bags and feel the warmth coming off the jar. Into the fridge after it cools down and enjoying it cold (ice is optional). I so seldomly drink soda in the summer just because I normally have my sun tea to enjoy!

Have a good one.

Tea of the day: Stash green chai, Gloria Jeans Cinnamon Stick black tea and SUN TEA! (2 bags cold brew lipton with 12 bags ROT Panda Berry tea and about 4 tablespoons honey in a big jug in the sun for 3 hours, stir well 1/2 way through and then after it's brought back in before straining the bags.)

WO of the day: 25 minutes elliptical, push ups, sit ups, pilates ab moves.
