When it get this hot and humid (when you step outside the moisture just envelops you like a hot wet fur shirt), I don’t much care what I’m drinking as long as it is cold. This causes me to be a little sloppy with my beverage concoctions. Over the past couple of days, we’ve tried refrigerator alchemy with:

Red Rose tea with mint and a splunk of sassafrass concentrate

Some embarrassingly old loose leaf pu-erh, gone halvesies with Loyd blackberry/blueberry herbal

Surprisingly, neither were terrible and would have some potential if I paid attention to the prep.

What kinds of crazy things are you schlopping together to stay cool?

I haven’t tried to cold brew anything, mostly because our fridge is full all the time. But I need to try that as well; as well some iced tea.

I’ve been drinking cold coconut water and gatorade after dealing with food poisoning or something. Little tea had, hot or cold, the past 3 days. I’d try both of your concoctions!

Somebody asked me once when I became a tea junkie; I think it dates back to college when I needed caffeine for a 7 a.m. class but chose not to do coffee. My favorite teapot is a medium-sized Brown Betty given to me by my Mema; the painted flowers are chipping off, but the size and feel is perfect. I rejoice when I get a morning to brew a pot of loose tea starting with a kettle; not a bag and a hot pot.
