When it is hot outdoors and only iced tea will do, how do you make it?
For many years I only made sun tea,
then I found out bacteria grows in the tea while in the sun steeping away.
Exploring and hearing of cold brew I decided to give it a try.
All you have to do is find some tea to brew.
This is actually when I like teabags and often use Red Rose tea.
Fill a jar or pitcher with cold water.
I use a gallon jar.
Add enough tea to get the strength you like.
I use about 8 teabags for the gallon of water.
Put the tea in the jar with the water
and set in the refrigerator overnight.
In the morning you will have a container full of tea ready for a new day of sipping.
It is soooooo very easy and so delicious!
A sprig of lemon verbena added to the glass makes it even prettier
and gives a nice hint of lemon.
Enjoy!
Stay cool dear friends and happy weekend!
