I’m already planning iced tea for Saturday
Posted by andrea tomkins in: Recipes and Food
Iced tea reminds me of summer. This week has not felt very summery at all. The wall-to-wall cloudcover is killing me softly. That’s why I’m looking forward to Saturday. They’re forecasting sun, and I’m hanging on to that forecast with everything I can muster.
The other day I realized that if I made a two-cup measure of tea I can drink one cup while it’s hot in the morning and stick the rest of it in the fridge for afternoon consumption. Smart eh?
It’s pretty simple, and MILES better than the powdered stuff you buy in the can. (WTH is that stuff made of anyway?) Boil some water, add your teabag of choice and as much lemon juice and honey as you like. Voila.
No wonder it reminds me of summer. There is ACTUAL SUN in this measuring cup:
It is lovely served with lemon ice, and/or when it’s made in a retro coffee carafe.
Oh where are you Saturday?
