Dr. Tea's Tea-Infused Libations
SUN TEA
A great way to make tea without wasting energy is to use the power of the sun to make sun tea.
Put
4 to 6 tea bags into a 2 quart glass container. Fill with water and
place outside where the sunlight can strike the container for about 3
to 5 hours. Move the container if necessary to keep it in the sun. When
the tea has reached its desired strength, remove from sun and put it in
the refrigerator. You may or may not want to remove the tea bags at
this point. The slow steeping has a way of bringing out a slightly
different flavor from the tea. Tea should be refrigerated and drank
quickly - a day or two.
You
can add any type of fruit or flavor you desire for an added taste: Ex.
A few sprigs of fresh mint as well as oranges, apples, etc.
