Sun Tea

I don’t know why, but this year I forgot about sun tea until about halfway through the summer. It makes no sense, since the simple joy of sun tea is on my top-10 summer favs list.

The wait for it to chill after it’s done adds to the sweet anticipation. It feels like such a well-earned cold beverage in the heat of it all.

So here’s your friendly reminder to set out your sun tea tomorrow morning. Just in case I’m not the only farmgirl forgetting this particular summer joy. Cheers!

  1. Your sun tea is red , is that hibiscus in it? like in that good ole hippie dippie trippie standby Red Zinger Tea?
    I make gallons of iced tea, usually just the regular black tea, but always Red Rose Tea, ( so I can get those free adorable free English Wade figurines in the boxes- been collecting for like 40 + years ) Right now they are the nautical series, I am looking for another seahorse and another conch too. Over the years they have had every kind of animal: jungle, circus, endangered, farm, petshop, etc. And last year it was the calendar series with a figurine standing for each month, the orange cat in a pumpkin in October being my favorite and the rarest. Try this tea as it is so much fun, like christmas every time you open a box. And the way I drink tea it goes fast and yep, time to get another box. I also forgot about sun tea, was just gonna make my iced tea this morning ,so here goes…. Here comes the sun……

    My fav sum tea is Celestial Seasonings Peach. We can make some sun tea a lot of months in Florida.

    So lucky here in So. California. I make Sun Tea all year round. Love putting a couple sprigs of fresh mint in it while it brews.
